R2v3 is the defacto standard for electronics repair and recycling. It provides a common processes, safety measures, and documentation requirements for businesses that repair and recycle used electronics. R2 is independently audited, and emphasizes quality, safety, and transparency. More than 1000 facilities, in more than 20 countries are currently R2 certified.
Although the R2 Certification is the only certification managed by non-profit organization Sustainable Electronics Recycling International (SERI), this certification can only be attained in combination with other approved environmental, health and safety management systems, including either: a.) R2v3 with Recycling Industry Operations Standard (RIOS), or b.) R2v3 with ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001.

Why is R2 Accreditation Important?
Holders of R2:2013 must have updated to R2v3 as it is now de facto standard, and mandatory for organizations which recycle electronics, and performs all of this associated processes and procedures.

>> A distinct advantage over unaccredited competitors, who [often] cannot even participate.
>> A demonstrated, proactive, management of risks; onsite, offsite, and through the downstream recycling chain.
>> Establishing preferred supplier status with government organizations and prime contractors.
>> Alleviating stakeholder safety concerns.
>> The improvement environmental awareness and legal compliance.
>> The collection of electronics from government agencies at all levels; which require R2v3
>> Creation new opportunities by meeting certification or accreditation conditions found in e-scrap contract requirements.
