Management, separate collection and recovery of office waste
Collection and recovery of
Since 1999, ESO has been collecting, recovering and disposing of used toner, laser cartridges, inkjet cartridges and ribbons.
Once used, printing consumables must be collected and sent for recovery in accordance with the procedures defined by current legislation, in particular Italian Legislative Decree 152/2006.
This waste contains hazardous substances that are harmful to the environment and our health.
Their harmful impact can only be limited by entrusting their transport to specialised facilities, and their recycling to special plants.
ESO is the ideal partner to rely on for the correct management of this waste.
Office waste management, toner and cartridge recovery
HOW IS THE COLLECTION ORGANISED?
The toner is recycled by means of collection and subsequent placement in recycled cardboard boxes, called the ESObox, available in three different sizes depending on the size of the waste: MINI, MIDI and MAXI. After collection, the toner is recycled for the benefit of the environment and quality of life.
HOW IS THE WITHDRAWAL OF THE ESOboxes ORGANISED?
ESO takes care of the withdrawal of the ESOboxes through the express service (EXP), managed by the customer by calling the dedicated toll-free number, or through the programmed service (PROG), planned by the customer according to their needs and with cost savings.
Specialised personnel will collect the toner, removing the bag full of used toner and inserting a new bag in the ESObox ready for the next collection.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO NOT HAVE MUCH MATERIAL TO RECYCLE?
To solve the problem of micro separate collection of waste in companies, ESO has designed a service ESOisola that introduces a new integrated waste management system. ESOisola is made up of ESOboxes, available in different formats (one for each type of waste produced) which, placed in the common areas of the company offices, form a real waste separation area.
A complete service based on procedures that simplify waste management and disposal, thus supporting the principles of the circular economy.

Transport and disposal for the start of recovery processes of
In Italy it is estimated that around 100 million neon lights are produced each year. Their widespread use in our country and also their regulatory classification as special hazardous waste makes it essential to respect the rules for proper disposal and, therefore, recycling.
Remember that fluorescent lights, often called neon or low consumption lights, must be recovered properly because they contain dangerous substances such as mercury and should therefore be treated appropriately and handled with care.
How does our disposal service work?
The neon collection and recovery service includes the collection of fluorescent tubes and low energy consumption lamps via the NEON ESObox.
The container dedicated to collection allows, thanks to its telescope structure, the insertion of neon lamps of any size in the same box. Special perforated cardboard supports protect the lamps during transport to prevent damage and breakage.

When the ESObox is filled, ESO takes care of the collection through the express service (EXP) or through the programmed service (PROG): specialised personnel will carry out the withdrawal, positioning an empty ESObox for the new collection.
Safe collection, treatment and collection of
Used and spent batteries are considered special hazardous waste.
Disposing of them via undifferentiated dry waste means polluting the environment: the substances of which they are composed can in fact constitute a potential danger both for human health and for the environment around us, due to their high toxicity.
This is why it is important to dispose of them correctly.
Safe collection, treatment and collection of batteries
The service includes the collection and subsequent correct treatment of all types of batteries using the BATTERIES ESObox.
BATTERIES ESObox, made of recycled cardboard, allows for collection, in accordance with the requirements of Italian Legislative Decree 188 of 2008, of different types of batteries, such as nickel-cadmium batteries, lithium batteries, accumulators, rechargeable batteries, mobile phone batteries and common alkaline batteries.
When the ESObox is filled, ESO takes care of the collection through the express service (EXP) or through the programmed service (PROG): specialised personnel will carry out the withdrawal, positioning an empty bag in the ESObox for the next collection.

Latest generation lamps are known for their durability and efficiency. They have a long life and allow energy savings of up to 80% for each individual lighting point.
Fluorescent bulbs contain a variable amount of mercury or other gases: once used, they are classified as special waste and must therefore be disposed of properly.

Collection and recovery of
The service includes the collection and subsequent start of recovery of obsolete electronic material and the treatment of hi-tech waste, such as computers, displays, printers, photocopiers, scanners, servers and fax machines.
Separate collection and recovery of
Knowing how to dispose of mobile phones, batteries and mobile phone batteries is crucial, because mobile phones consist of an infinite number of electronic components.
Consequently, if mobile phones are not disposed of properly, there is a risk of irreparable damage to the environment.
Collection and recovery
WEEE is among the many types of waste we produce every day. These are small and large household appliances and in general, all appliances powered by electricity that when they stop working and have to be thrown away become WEEE, i.e. Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment.
Separate collection
Using air conditioners in the office and at home allows for pleasant temperatures in all seasons. However, being air handling devices, they can become dangerous if they are not periodically checked.
Correct disposal of the filters prevents health risks and causes less damage to the surrounding environment.
Differentiated collection and management
Like all waste, paper poses disposal problems. Paper is a recyclable material and can be treated and reused as a second material for the production of new paper.
In Italy, paper and cardboard represent about 30% of total waste and constitute a resource because they can be used to produce recycled paper.
By recovering a ton of cellulose material, three 20-metre high trees, can be saved, reducing the environmental impact and saving energy sources.
Differentiated collection and management of paper
ESO offers a complete service, carried out by qualified personnel for the collection of the paper, directly inside the Customer's offices, to guarantee its correct disposal at authorised plants.
The paper recovery and disposal service includes different types of containers:
– Recycled cardboard ESObox for the collection of plain paper
– PAPER ESObox made of recycled cardboard for the collection of medium to large quantities of paper including paper archives
– Aluminium ESObox for the collection of confidential documents through a dedicated service: Secret paper
When the ESObox is filled, ESO takes care of the collection through the express service (EXP) or through the programmed service (PROG): specialised staff will carry out collection, replacing the full bag and inserting an empty replacement bag in the paper ESObox.
ESO also advises on legal requirements, such as Load and Unloading Registers, the Annual Declaration (MUD), as well as legal and practical information for obtaining tax relief (TARI) for services provided by private companies.
Collection and recovery
Bulky waste – e.g. desks, cabinets and shelving – can and should be sent for preparation for reuse, to give the furniture a second life cycle or for recycling. Both the Waste Framework Directive (2008/98/EC) and national regulations (Italian Legislative Decree No. 152/2006) require the recovery of disused furniture, limiting its disposal in landfills.
Do you need to dispose of your bulky waste?
At ESO we take care of the classification, collection and transport of bulky waste.
Differentiated collection and recovery
Differentiated collection of office waste: recovery of plastic bottles and cans
The service provides for the collection and recovery of plastic bottles and cans from the differentiated collection inside offices.
Differentiated collection and recovery of plastic and cans
Also for this type of collection, ESO proposes an ad hoc container, in line with the new European and national provisions, amendments to the Waste Framework Directive (2018/851/EU) and Italian Legislative Decree No. 152/2006, which increase the targets for the differentiated collection of plastic and cans.
When the service is activated, ESO staff visit the company and together with the customer establish the best location for the ESObox®, illustrating how it works.
When the ESObox is filled, ESO performs collection through the express service (EXP) or through the programmed service (PROG): specialised staff will carry out the pick-up, replacing the full bag and inserting an empty replacement bag in the ESObox for the next collection.
