TRANSCRIPT
Repic is the largest WEEE producer
compliance scheme in the UK. Our
WEEE members represent
approximately half by weight of all the
new electrical and electronic products
sold in the UK every year
WEEE is Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment.
• REPIC was established by producers that are directly responsible for financing the costs of WEEE
• REPIC is one of the 6 Battery Compliance scheme run for its members
• REPIC runs a Packaging Compliance Scheme for its members
• REPIC is a not for profit organisation – all our costs are funded by our members
• REPIC collects from a larger percentage of population through Local Authorities than any other PCS. We are already the biggest Local Authority WEEE collector in the UK
• In addition REPIC collects from producers, retailers, FRN Members housing associations, charities and other WEEE collectors
• Our WEEE objectives remain:• To contract directly with waste holders
• To provide each customer with their own SLA
• To increase the amount of separately collected WEEE
• Work with partners to increase the amount of WEEE reused
