Waste Management

Annually, more than 50 million tons of e-waste is sent to the landfill. QSC is committed to doing what we can to minimize our e-waste, and its overall waste, through our efforts to reduce, reuse, and recycle.
 

Reduce
Our two warehouses in Southern California, USA have reduced their reliance on and purchase of new filler material by investing in cardboard shredders. Please see the Sustainable Packaging section.
 

Reuse
QSC and partners provide repair services at various locations, extending the life of our products. When the product is shipped to these locations, the packaging is reused whenever possible, so additional packaging is not needed to return the serviced products to our customers. You can find your closest service location by visiting our product repair page.
 

Recycle
Our technical service centers in the United States and the Netherlands have partnered with local organizations to recycle our obsolete products and cardboard. We are exploring ways we can expand our recycling efforts to divert e-waste from the landfill.
