National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme (NTCRS)

As a Liable Party under the National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme (NTCRS), you will need to carefully weigh up which of the approved Co-regulatory Arrangements you select to meet your organisation’s obligations.

ANZRP:

  • Is a member owned organisation, with members including some of the world’s leading technology brands
  • Runs the national TechCollect e-waste collection and recycling program – the largest program operating under the NTCRS, covering metro, regional and remote Australia
  • Has recycled over 274,000 tonnes of e-waste since its inception
  • Manages e-waste take back programs on behalf of members

The NTCRS is a scheme under the Recycling and Waste Reduction Act 2020, which legislates industry to increase recycling and manage the environmental, health and safety impacts of the products that we use. The NTCRS identifies manufacturers/importers of covered products who import over set thresholds as liable to fund the collection and recycling of end-of-life e-products by joining and funding a Co-regulatory Arrangement to meet set NTCRS targets and required outcomes.

ANZRP works for its members, not for profit, providing a lean and sustainable arrangement to meet their liability under legislation, and ensures Australian households and small businesses have a free and easy way to responsibly dispose of and recycle their e-waste.

We are committed to setting the highest standard of recycling and ensure a high recovery rate of the materials recycled. We only partner with recyclers who operate to sound environmental and workplace health and safety standards and 100% of e-waste we collect undergoes first-stage recycling in Australia.

Member and independent representatives are on our Board of Directors, so you can rest assured your brand will be safeguarded, and you are partnering with the NTCRS’ leading Co-regulatory Arrangement.
