One directive. Twenty-seven separate implementations.

The EU has six major instruments governing electronics sustainability, and each is implemented nationally. Miss a producer responsibility registration in one member state and you can lose market access across the bloc. Fines start at €50,000 per violation.

The instruments that shape the work

Named, numbered, and current. This is the part clients most often cannot assemble internally.

WEEE Directive2012/19/EU
Extended producer responsibility for electronics. 65% collection target across 10 product categories. Producers finance collection, treatment, recovery, and disposal, and register with a scheme in each member state.
EU Battery Regulation2023/1542
The most comprehensive battery legislation anywhere: battery passports, recycled content mandates, carbon footprint declarations, and due diligence, covering portable, industrial, EV, and SLI batteries.
CSRD
Double materiality assessment, value chain emissions, taxonomy alignment, limited assurance. Mandatory for large companies and listed SMEs.
Ecodesign & Right to Repair
Repairability scoring, spare parts availability, and software update obligations. Extends product life, which is the only intervention that reduces eWaste before it exists.
Critical Raw Materials Act
Supply security and sourcing obligations for the materials electronics depend on, which pulls procurement into the same conversation as compliance.

What we do across the member states

MobiCycle EU is the European arm: WEEE compliance, circular economy work, and reporting under the most demanding environmental legislation in force anywhere.

WEEE compliance

End-to-end EPR implementation: collection targets, treatment standards, reporting obligations, and take-back scheme design, worked out per jurisdiction rather than averaged.

Circular economy

Design for disassembly, material recovery, and closed-loop architecture. Turning take-make-dispose into systems that keep value in the product.

eWaste education

Training, gamified learning, and public awareness work for consumers, businesses, and municipalities, because collection targets are met by people making better decisions at the bin.

Who needs this

Anyone placing electronics on the EU market, including several categories of company that did not expect to be in scope.

Electronics manufacturers selling into EU markets from anywhere.

UK companies handling post-Brexit divergence in WEEE and battery rules.

Non-EU producers who need an authorised representative per member state.

Recyclers operating across several jurisdictions at once.

Trade associations advising members who each have a different exposure.
