Recycling

As a supplier of electronic communication products, Polycom recognizes its Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) and embraces the opportunity to help protect and preserve our environment by providing safe ways to dispose of electronic waste. With this goal in mind, we’ve created the Polycom Takeback and Recycle Program as part of our corporate environmental initiative. Customers can be confident that Polycom branded “end of life” products will be managed responsibly.

Voluntary Worldwide Recycling Service

In order to provide a Takeback network service, Polycom has partnered with AER Worldwide and RENE AG (Europe), who are specialists with “end of life” electronic products (i.e. e-waste / WEEE). This enables us to offer customers in all our major markets access to a worldwide network, and the capability to “recycle or refurbish and reuse” our products, diverting from landfill and reducing our environmental impacts. Both our partners use facilities that adhere to the international environmental standard ISO 14001 ensuring returned products are disposed of in an environmentally safe manner. To help meet requirements of your Environmental Management System (EMS), Polycom offers to provide a Certificate of Destruction (COD) to customers upon request to certify that your end of life products have been managed responsibly and in accordance with local legislation.
