Administered by Sustainable Electronics Recycling International (SERI), R2 emphasizes protection of natural resources through pollution prevention, extending the life of electronics as a means to reducing e-waste, and data security and privacy. R2 was established to ensure electronics recyclers are compliant with the EPA’s e-waste regulations.
