All electronic waste, including mobile phones, collected at the many pick-up points in the country in El-Kretsen’s name is transported straight to the facility signed up to deal with the pre-treatment. Here, each product is disassembled and the parts are then sorted into different fractions, such as plastic, metals, components, etc. All kinds of components with memory functions, such as circuit boards and hard discs, are fragmented in order to guarantee that the information stored will be deleted.
