Efficient WEEE collection and management with smart technology

The WEEE (e-waste) collection industry faces rising costs, inefficiencies, and compliance risks
Emptying half-full bins, outdated route planning, and a lack of real-time data waste time and resources while increasing carbon footprints. Theft of e-waste bins adds further challenges. These issues highlight the urgent need for innovative solutions.
E-waste collectors, including WEEE take-back operators and Producer Responsibility Organizations (PROs), face significant challenges in connecting all stakeholders – collection points, logistics partners, and processing sites – within a transparent and efficient workflow. Their key need is to work with real-time data to modernize operations, ensuring processes are interconnected and streamlined.
Managing transport and logistics is particularly challenging, with automation playing a critical role in reducing inefficiencies and operational costs. Whether supporting reuse, buyback, or recycling programs, these organizations require innovative digital tools to enhance transparency, traceability, and collaboration across the entire e-waste management chain.
Sensoneo solution
To address the challenges in WEEE collection, we offer two innovative solutions tailored to e-waste collectors. Our ultrasonic sensors paired with the Waste Management System (WMS) software platform empower collectors with real-time data on bin fill levels and predictive analytics to plan future collections efficiently. This eliminates unnecessary routes, reducing operational costs and environmental impact. Advanced automation ensures optimal route planning, while the system also monitors unscheduled fill-level changes to deter theft and secure valuable e-waste materials.
Our Take-back System further streamlines operations by providing reliable data in compliance with WEEE regulations. This solution enhances efficiency and reduces operational expenditures (OPEX) through digitized workflows and process automation. Features such as simple transport planning, waste traceability, and a user-friendly interface make collection management more intuitive and effective. Additionally, it simplifies invoicing, service verification, and reporting, ensuring transparency and accuracy with reliable data at every stage of the process.
