Primary resources Electronics production industry REWINIntroduction Secondary materials Large generators production waste WEEE Recycling facilities Informal collection formal collection WEEE Households 2
Linking supply and demand of secondary raw materials in electronic production and recycling (chain approach). The development of an adequate recycling infrastructure for WEEE as post-consumer waste and secondary raw materials from electronic producing industry. The development of a knowledge structure on Design for Recycling between the recyclers and the electronic producing industry REWINtargets 3

MFA case study Outcome: 10 MFA case studies MFA guideline Resource efficiency action plans 10
Rewinoutcomes (1) • Developing a system structure for a chain approach of EEE including collection, recycling, production, system enforcement, supervision and monitoring and applying tasks and responsibilities to different organisations and stakeholders • implementation of an online Waste Tracking System (e-WTS) • training toolkits on e-WTS • guidelines for registering and using the e-WTS system for producers, recyclers and authorities.
Rewinoutcomes (2) • Case studies and manual for material flow analysis for electronic producers and recyclers • Training toolkits Design for Recycling • Action plans developed by the selected SMEs of the electronics industry • Secondary Materials Exchange Platform (SMEP) to link supply and demand of secondary raw materials.
Rewinoutcomes (3) • Adapted standard for collection and recycling of WEEE • Best practice examples for the use of secondary materials and Design for Recycling. • Setting up a policy framework for the promotion of resource efficiency and sustainable production • Build up a network for stakeholders in order to use the e-WTS and SMEP for improving resource efficiency in production of electronic products and recycling of WEEE.
