HCL has pioneered a brand agnostic exercise called HCL-Green Bag, where we extend the e-waste collection to our corporate as well as retail customers. With the aggressive pitching of the ‘Green-Bag campaign’ to the customers, HCL takes an aggressive target of increasing the recycling ratio from 4.77% currently to 15% by 30th June 2011.
Earlier our e-waste collection was limited to internal e-waste only. Now, by extending the Green-Bag campaign to Corporates as well as Individuals, and by making it a brand-agnostic program (the customer can dispose off any brand or make of e-waste), we are very-much sure that we will be able to achieve our target of collecting 15% of our generated e-waste.
Contact us for disposing your e-waste:
As a major step towards making our e-waste collection service easily accessible to customers, we have now centralized the Green-Bag campaign. Now, we have a dedicated e-waste desk at our Head Office to direct customers regarding their e-waste submission to HCL Touch Centers.
