Circular.brussels has a clear focus on creating positive local impact. We connect and strengthen local communities in Brussels through circular and social entrepreneurship. We provide high quality second-hand IT products in a sustainable and affordable way and contribute to reducing the ecological footprint of the Brussels-Capital Region through the collection, reuse and ecological recycling of IT waste from companies.

Fundraising during the health crisis.

Request for 500 laptops.

During this time of health crisis, Circular.brussels wants to help low-income students and families by giving them access to laptops and desktops so that they have the same opportunities as the rest of us to work safely at home while pursuing their studies.

Over the next few weeks, Circular.brussels intends to collect at least 5000 laptops and desktops from companies in the Brussels-Capital Region and prepare them for distribution. Laptops and desktops will be distributed to schools and philanthropic organisations in the Brussels-Capital Region.

Companies wishing to support this initiative can request a free collection of their material via this link:

We collect waste electrical and electronic equipment with an electric or hybrid vehicle and bring it to our collection centre in Tour & Taxis.

Testing and refurbishing.

All measures are taken by our specialists to ensure safe reuse of the equipment. Part of this process includes extensive safety, visual and functional testing, repairs and cleaning of equipment

Re-use

The lifetime of these devices is extended. There will be decent appliances on the second-hand market for different target groups. This allows them to buy a device at affordable prices for professional, school and home use.
