Synergy Recycling, LLC

Synergy Recycling, LLC is a leading-edge electronics recycling firm located in the Piedmont Triad area of North Carolina. We have developed the finest system in the industry for shredding and mechanically separating used electronic equipment into commodity grade components. Our other services include demanufacturing, asset recovery, certified data destruction of sensitive media, and transportation services for the materials we handle. We serve clients throughout the eastern United States. Synergy Recycling is a certified electronics recycler under R2/RIOS. R2 is the set of 'Responsible Recycling' standards that was developed by industry, governments, recyclers, environmentalists, refurbishers, and non-profits under the direction of the EPA.

Synergy Recycling, LLC is committed to excellence and continual improvement in every aspect of our electronics recovery and recycling operations.

Our goals are to:

protect worker health and safety,
prevent pollution,
reuse and recover equipment where feasible,
reduce solid waste,
please our customers, and
comply with applicable legal standards and other requirements.

We will seek to achieve these goals both at our own facility and throughout the recycling chain through regular training and adherence to internal procedures.

Electronic equipment is a growing concern and our country’s fastest growing waste / recycling stream. These materials represent 1-4% of our nation’s municipal solid waste disposal. Many states have passed legislation effectively banning electronic items from municipal solid waste landfills. In all that we do at Synergy, we demonstrate our commitment to environmental excellence. No electronics are landfilled, we comply with every environmental regulation, and your used computers and other equipment become raw materials in the manufacture of new products. If your organization is seeking an economical and environmentally sound outlet for disposal of these assets, please contact us. One of our representatives will be glad to discuss how we can fulfill your needs and requirements.

Synergy Recycling, LLC was founded in 2000 to meet the growing need for environmentally responsible recycling of obsolete and end of life electronic equipment. Since then, we have grown rapidly, and in 2009 we moved our primary processing facility to our Madison, North Carolina. According to a Recycling Today survey in 2010, Synergy had become the 10th largest electronics recycling company in the United States.

In 2011 we completed installation of an advanced shredding and mechanical processing system that incorporates innovative, state of the art technology and produces very pure ferrous and non-ferrous metals and plastic commodities. The proprietary system was designed by MTD America, Ltd. and SGM Magnetics Corp. This system allows Synergy Recycling to separate your used electronic equipment into specific commodities to a degree that is unsurpassed in the world. These recycled commodities replace virgin feedstock for new manufactured products.

Benefits of Recycling

Electronic equipment may contain a variety of materials that require special handling, including batteries, lead, mercury and cadmium. The chart below depicts the overall composition of the average personal computer. Federal law requires that many of them be managed as “universal waste,” and cathode ray tubes are considered hazardous waste when discarded. Properly recycling your used electronic equipment eliminates your potential liabilities and protects the environment by reducing the solid waste stream and by reclaiming resources that substitute for virgin materials.

Synergy is the right choice as your electronics recycler. We fully understand the complex regulatory programs and meet or exceed every applicable requirement. We thoroughly investigate every company that wishes to buy materials from us to determine that it also is in compliance. We are confident that our careful, protective attitude benefits both the environment and our customers.
