In Conjunction with Earth Week, E-Waste Systems (EWSI) Announces Expansion of Free E-Waste Recycling with Tech Columbus

LONDON and COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- E-Waste Systems, (OTC BB: EWSI), through its Ohio subsidiary, has expanded its free e-waste recycling service to individuals and institutions in the greater Columbus area.

Martin Nielson, CEO of E-Waste Systems states, "We recently teamed up with Tech Columbus as their preferred e-waste recycler and our newest event during Earth Week resulted in many truckloads and nearly 5,000 pounds of e-waste collected in just a few hours of work.  We have agreed to make monthly weekend collection events an integral part of our service and to complement that with free drop off at our e-waste plant every weekday."  

EWSI's core strategy is designed to mix environmental responsibility with professional management, selective acquisitions and partnerships with organizations led by executives whose teams bring complementary services and necessary geographies together with an excellent customer base. The company expects to leverage these by implementing new business development initiatives and by embracing Fair-Trade E-Waste recycling principles.

About E-Waste Systems, Inc.:

Headquartered in London, where e-waste regulations are the most stringent in the world, EWSI aims to be a leading provider of e-waste related services in key jurisdictions globally. Blumberg Associates estimates the e-waste sector at a $55B industry annually, as legislation increasingly mandates that e-waste can no longer be landfilled. OEM's, retailers and users are increasingly responsible for end-of-life management of e-waste, while Corporate Social Responsibility demands highly compliant, professional solution providers. The collection and recovery industry is also highly fragmented and EWSI considers these elements as an attractive environment for its buy, build and upgrade strategy.
