“Help us to protect the environment by disposing your IT waste in the right place.”
Integrated Management System IMS
Three years later, Ecofimatica already covered the entire country, even before the entry into force of Royal Decree 208/2005. Very soon, we far exceeded the targets set by the WEEE regulation.
As an Integrated Management System (IMS), Ecofimatica offers on-demand waste collection for centers with more than 300 kgs of waste and a network of Temporary Waste Storage Facilities for delivery of smaller amounts of waste.
Ecofimatica has signed agreements with logistic agents and specialized authorized treatment plants to ensure total traceability and adequate treatment of 100% of the waste collected.
Ecofimatica is a scheme specifically adapted to the peculiarities of a sector in which large copying equipment coexists with smaller printers commonly used at households. It draws together about 30 manufacturers and importers operating in Spain as well as the distribution channel.
Virtually from its origins, Ecofimatica drew together 90% of reprographic and office manufacturers operating in Spain. This fact remains the main guarantee of Ecofimatica: to count on the confidence of most manufacturers and importers of office devices, a fact that ensures the maximum industry representation.
The role of the distributor is critical for the proper management of electronic waste from the IT industry.
