Wipro to offer e-waste disposal services to customers

Wipro has announced that it will be offering e-waste disposal services to their customers from September 1. This improves compliance with the RoHS and ISO 14000 standards.

On various measures taken within Wipro, Ashutosh Vaidya, vice-president, personal computing division, said, "Wipro has been actively working on the issue since August, 2005. We had set up an environment management team to lead Wipro's initiatives on this front. Over the last one year, we have defined the process, identified suitable disposal mechanisms, created service points across the country, identified technically competent disposal agencies and setup a process for disposal of e-waste."
