UK aerospace and defence businesses dispose of avionics test equipment, radar components, simulation hardware and defence computing electronics - all requiring chain-of-custody documentation and secure data destruction that standard WEEE collectors cannot provide. We deliver AS9100-aligned disposal records and full Duty of Care on every collection.
Why It Matters
Aerospace and defence WEEE - from avionics test rigs to radar system components - requires chain-of-custody documentation, secure data destruction and often AS9100 or ITAR-aware handling that standard WEEE collectors simply don't have the credentials to provide.
Every UK business disposing of electrical equipment must use a licensed waste contractor and obtain full Duty of Care documentation. Using an unlicensed collector can result in unlimited fines under the Environmental Protection Act 1990.
IT equipment contains sensitive data. Disposal without certified data destruction exposes your business to ICO enforcement and GDPR breaches. We provide Blancco and ADISA-certified destruction on every applicable collection.

A waste transfer note alone is not sufficient for WEEE. ISO 14001 audits, public sector tenders and ESG reports require full Duty of Care chains. We provide complete documentation on every job, retained for the legally required period.
