As part of the National Recycling Coalition (NRC) and the Pennsylvania Recycling Markets Center (RMC) Sustainable Materials webinar series,
Sean De Vries, Sustainable Electronics Recycling International’s (SERIs) R2 director, presented on R2v3, the updated version of the R2 (Responsible Recycling Practices) Standard.
“There has been a number of people involved in the review and revision process,” De Vries says. “I think we’ve come a long way and made some good progress with the standard.”
R2v3, the third version of the R2 Standard, will be “more reflective of the time we’re in,” De Vries says.
R2 general principles will be maintained, but there will be greater emphasis on a few key areas, including improvement on how electronics are reused and recycled,
data security and destruction and best practices for environmental protection.
