More and more high-tech manufacturers are motivating themselves to participate in Product Take-back Programs for older technology goods. 12 European countries have mandatory take-back laws, which state quite simply, that for each high-tech product sold into the consumer marketplace, one has to be removed for the purpose of recycling. The United States has no legislation mandating such Take-back Programs. However, with the increasing number of high-tech products being produced and sold here, it is only a matter of time before something is put forth in legislature. Contact a Fox Electronics representative to find out how we can help your organization establish a take-back program, before the government mandates it. Product Stewardship begins with you.

In participation with companies that have Take-back Programs, Fox Electronics can accept older technology computer systems either directly from the end-user, the manufacturer, or a third party vendors. Fox Electronics can help with the set-up, implementation, and administration of a Take-back Program.
