Where e-waste comes from in Vanderbijlpark

Vanderbijlpark was built around one of Africa's largest steel works and remains a hub for metal processing and engineering. Plants and shutdown contractors retire control panels, drives, instrumentation and old IT during upgrades. The city also hosts a university campus and a university of technology, which replace computers and laboratory equipment in batches. Retail centres and households in Vanderbijlpark, Sebokeng and Bophelong generate appliances and phones. Steel and engineering firms request most collections here.
