Sims Lifecycle Services (SLS), a West Chicago, Illinois-based company focused on information technology asset disposition (ITAD) and electronics recycling, participated on a panel at the Reverse Logistics Association (RLA) European Summit 2020.
The virtual summit, which took place Sept. 29-30 brought together returns and reverse logistics subject matter experts to discuss issues surrounding the circular economy, customer experience, digital transformation and recycling challenges.
Jelle Slenters, head of business development for SLS, EMEA participated in a panel regarding “Recycling Challenges in Reverse Logistics” Sept. 30. The panel featured Corey Dehmey from SERI and Maria Eisenberg from Marimole and discussed how reducing waste is good for profits and for the planet, but also how effective recycling can be complex and expensive.
“I appreciated the invitation to participate in this panel discussion and offer my perspective on the unique recycling challenges facing the industry today,” Slenters said. “As discussed, communication and transparency are going to remain significant to overcome these challenges, and as our clients’ demands evolve we will continue to work closely with them, invest in our ecosystem, and leverage our strong network of partners around the world. This collaboration will help drive more closed-loop solutions.”
