About WEEE · PARK
Located in Tuen Mun’s EcoPark, WEEE · PARK is a state-of-the-art Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) treatment and recycling facility in Hong Kong. The e-waste we collected is transported to this facility, where they undergo detoxification, dismantling and cracking, resulting in the production of valuable secondary raw materials which will be resold to qualified recyclers for recycling and reprocessing. Equipped with advanced technologies, the facility imposes stringent control over hazardous components present in WEEE, reducing the risk of environmental pollution.
