UAE-based retailer Sharaf DG has launched a digital initiative to streamline the collection and segregation of e-waste from households and businesses.

The initiative is in collaboration with Renie, utilising recycling services by Enviroserve, the retailer said in a statement.

When people deposit old electronics and appliances into designated bins at Sharaf DG stores, the system records the quantity collected and generates sustainable gifts.

The e-waste collection drive reflects our commitment to the UAE’s sustainability vision, said Nilesh Khalkho, CEO, Sharaf DG.
