Facts and figures
The Swico Recycling system started in 1994 with just over 3,200 tonnes. In 2012, we reached a record level of over 61,000 tonnes. But in the meantime, many pieces of equipment have become smaller and lighter. In 2019, the total weight just over 46,935 tonnes.
Swico Recycling, that means currently:
- Over 600 collection points
- 620 convention signatories
- 8 cantonal agreements
- 6000 opportunities for returns in trade

Finances 2019
2019 was another successful year: Swico Recycling gained 52 new convention signatories (+9%) and increased its VRG revenues by 6%. Compared to the previous year, the volume of waste electrical and electronic equipment collected also increased slightly. In short: the voluntary take-back system with fair cooperation between Swico, dealers and recycling partners is proving its worth in its 25th anniversary year.
