The challenges in 2021 included developing telephone collection, developing partnerships to promote our solution in used mobile telephone take-back operations and improving user experience and the management of complaints.

In 2021 we launched jedonnemonelectromenager.fr, a new service free or charge to collect large household items from the home, upon appointment, via a platform connecting service providers. We developed this service in order to accelerate the handling of large equipment having a high reuse potential.

In 2021 we wanted to offer a new intermediation service in which we play a trusted third party. Thanks to the quiveutmesdechets.fr solution we enabled those holding household and professional WEEE to contact referenced service providers.
