The objective of the WEEE Directive is to promote collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment and recovery, recycling and preparation for reuse of this waste, in order to reduce the quantity disposed. In 2021, the collection rate of WEEE in the European Union was 46.2 % (measured as the weight of WEEE collected relative to the average weight of electronic equipment put on the market in the three preceding years, i.e. 2018-2020).
