Recycling and environmental sustainability are an important part of how we think about our products, our customers and the world around us.
01 / RECYCLING YOUR APPLIANCE
Household electrical and electronic appliances can usually be recycled free of charge through local recycling facilities. EcoAir contributes to UK arrangements for the responsible collection and recycling of electrical equipment.
Visit Recycle More and search for the type of electrical appliance you would like to recycle.
Use your postcode to find nearby recycling points and the available local services.
Check the centre's acceptance rules before visiting and take your appliance to the appropriate point.
Recycle More provides a searchable directory of recycling locations across the UK. Local acceptance conditions may vary.
WHY IT MATTERS
Electrical waste is a growing environmental challenge. When electrical appliances are recycled correctly, valuable materials can be recovered and fewer items are sent to landfill.
Responsible recycling also helps reduce risks of soil and water contamination, protecting people, wildlife and the wider environment.
02 / UNDERSTANDING WEEE
WEEE stands for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment. It generally includes products powered by a plug or batteries, such as household electrical appliances.
Many appliances display the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol. This means the item should not be disposed of with ordinary household waste and should be taken to an appropriate collection point.
Look for the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on your appliance.
03 / OUR COMMITMENT
At EcoAir, sustainability informs how we design, operate and improve. We aim to minimise our environmental impact throughout the product lifecycle, from engineering and packaging to transport, maintenance and end-of-life care.
We consider energy use, durability and product performance throughout development. Our desiccant dehumidifiers operate without refrigerant gases and are designed for effective use in lower temperatures. Selected portable air conditioners use lower-GWP refrigerants, while DC fan technology can help reduce electricity use compared with conventional motors, depending on model and settings.
We work to reduce single-use plastics in packaging and consider recyclable or biodegradable alternatives where suitable. Our approach also prioritises longer-lasting components, straightforward maintenance and repairability to help reduce unnecessary waste.
We regularly review our operations and supply chain, working with partners who share our expectations for responsible environmental and ethical practices. We seek opportunities to reduce resource use and improve logistics across the product journey.
We provide product information and practical usage guidance to help customers make informed choices. Advice on settings, timers, maintenance and energy use supports efficient operation and helps avoid unnecessary consumption.
Our responsibilities extend beyond the point of sale. EcoAir supports product longevity through service and repair options, refurbishment where appropriate, and participation in responsible recycling arrangements. We continue to review our practices and look for ways to improve over time.
LOOKING AHEAD
We believe sustainability and innovation should work together. From the way products are designed to the way they are cared for and recycled, every responsible decision matters.
