Cerebra Integrated Technologies, one of India’s premier total IT Solutions retailers, announced a new partnership with Cimelia Resource Recovery Pte Ltd, India’s biggest e-waste recycling firm.
The alliance will allow Cerebra Integrated to begin work on its proposed e-waste recycling facility, set to be constructed near Bangalore. Located on 10 acres of land in the region, the new electronic waste recycling unit will be set-up entirely by Cimelia including machinery. The recycling firm will also aid Cerebra in the managing of the new facility.
Appropriately dubbed the E-waste plant, the new recycling unit will allow Cerebra Integrated to double its e-waste recycling capacity from 30,000 to 60,000 tonnes per year. The move will better equip the IT firm to be able to handle large influxes of e-waste on a domestic level as well as put the firm on the map in an international setting. The total investment cost for the new plant is estimated at Rs. 50 crore.
Managing director at Cerebra Integrated, V Ranganathan said that the group intends to build India’s largest e-waste recycling facility to date near Bangalore. He added that the move will mark a big step towards green and sustainable business practices for the firm and the industry. The government has backed the move signing an MOU with the firm and allotting a segment of land in Bangalore for the facility to be housed there.
