Register interest

EWR Expo is built for four groups of buyers. Each has a route through the floor and the program.

Electronics recyclers and processors

Compare equipment side by side and see it run on real e-scrap before you commit capital.

  • Shredders, separation lines and granulators demonstrated live
  • Battery detection, fire suppression and safety suppliers in one place
  • Sessions on recovery rates, fire risk and downstream markets
  • Refiners and buyers for the fractions you produce

ITAD and enterprise IT

Find partners and tools that retire hardware at scale, with an audit trail your security team will sign off.

  • Certified ITAD and data center decommissioning providers
  • Erasure software, drive shredders and degaussers side by side
  • Workshops on NIST 800-88 and proving sanitization
  • Remarketing partners who return value from retired assets

State and municipal programs

Run collection programs that cost less, keep batteries out of the trash and stand up to state reporting.

  • Briefings on electronics producer responsibility laws
  • Certified recyclers to market-sound ahead of a contract
  • Collection events, containers and battery-safe packaging
  • A public-sector lounge and peer roundtables

OEMs, brands and retailers

Turn take-back, reuse and recycled-content commitments into programs and supply that stand up to scrutiny.

  • Refurbishment and resale partners who can grade at volume
  • Refiners supplying recovered metals and plastics
  • EPR compliance services for every state you sell in
  • Take-back logistics for retail and mail-back programs

Pick your role to see a route through the show built for it. Two-day pass $99, conference included.
