WeRecycle!, Inc. is expanding its recycling capacity by opening a 56,600 square-foot facility in Mount Vernon, N.Y., just outside of New York City. The facility, expected to open by July 1, 2007, will provide local recycling infrastructure to process electronic waste generated in New York City.
WeRecycle!' also operates an e-scrap facility in Meriden, Ct. The company provides domestic, cost-effective processing of all types of electronics including computers, televisions, printers and cell phones. The company has received several grants from New York State. "We are pleased that New York State sees the value of investing in this emerging industry," said Mick Schum, president of WeRecycle!. "With this new facility, WeRecycle! continues to be a pioneer in the industry, setting the bar high for data destruction and environmental responsibility."
The new facility's demanufacturing process will include a 300 HP Quad Shredder, specifically engineered to process electronics.
