Maxus Technology and City of Calgary to Partner on Project

Maxus Technology Inc., a Medinex Systems Inc. subsidiary, has announced that it has won its bid to partner with the City of Calgary for another eCycle Day Roundup. The event will mark the second year in which Maxus Technology Inc. will play an instrumental role in the city's' e-waste collection.

"Calgary, Alberta, Canada continues to lead the e-waste revolution in Canada and will continue its innovative ways to safely manage computers and other electronic devices at the end of their life,'' Maxus President Shelley Whatmore says. "This is a low-cost, consumer friendly solution to the expensive electronic product recycling options currently available to the city."

Maxus will use its MeWa recycling technology to process more than 70 metric tonnes of eWaste during the day's event, Whatmore says. 

According to Maxus, last year's eCycle Roundup is considered to be one of the largest one-day electronic waste roundups held in North America with more than 220 metric tonnes collected from the city in six hours:. As a result, 3,615 computer monitors; 4,277 CPUs; 1,753 TVs and 1,393 stereos were collected. Telephones, speakers, game systems and other miscellaneous electronic equipment were also collected and recycled.

Maxus Technology Inc., based in California, was founded in 1994 as an asset recovery expert for the telecom industry. Maxus has an international sourcing network enabling it to secure in-demand products.
