Vapes
At GreenSphere, we offer specialized recycling services for e-cigarettes and vape products, addressing the growing need for the safe and responsible disposal of these items. Vapes contain valuable materials such as lithium batteries, metals, and plastics that can be recovered and repurposed. Our secure recycling process ensures these components are handled in an environmentally responsible manner, while also complying with safety and regulatory standards.
Collection & Transport
We begin by arranging the secure collection of vape products from your location. Each batch is tracked to ensure accountability, with documentation provided from collection to delivery at our recycling facility. We follow strict safety protocols during transport to prevent damage or leaks from vape batteries.
Sorting & Separation
Once the vapes reach our facility, they are carefully sorted and dismantled. Our team separates each product into its core components:
- Lithium Batteries: Removed and isolated for specialized handling.
- Plastic and Metal Casings: Sorted by material type for recycling.
- Cartridges and E-Liquid Residue: Safely removed and processed to prevent environmental contamination.
Battery Recycling
Lithium batteries from vapes pose specific safety risks and are managed with extreme care. These batteries are sent to specialized recycling facilities where the lithium and other valuable metals are extracted and repurposed. This process prevents hazardous waste from entering landfills and reduces the need for mining new materials.
Plastic & Metal Recycling
The plastic and metal components of the vape devices are granulated or melted down for repurposing:
- Plastics: Recycled into new plastic products, reducing the demand for virgin materials.
- Metals: Extracted metals are sent for refining and used in manufacturing new products, contributing to a circular economy.
E-Liquid and Cartridge Disposal
Any residual e-liquid is safely removed from the cartridges and disposed of according to environmental regulations. The cartridges themselves are recycled if possible, or securely disposed of to prevent contamination.
Environmental Compliance
Our vape recycling process is fully compliant with environmental and safety regulations, ensuring that hazardous materials such as lithium batteries and e-liquid are handled correctly. We provide detailed recycling certificates to ensure transparency and traceability, helping your business stay compliant with e-waste regulations.
Sustainable Impact
Recycling vapes with GreenSphere helps prevent hazardous materials from entering landfills and reduces the environmental impact of discarded vape products. By recovering valuable metals and plastics, we promote a circular economy while ensuring the safe and responsible disposal of electronic waste.
