Recycling and Resource Recovery

Recover * Reuse * Resell * Recycle

Smart, Secure and Sustainable Recycling Solutions

Entelar Group delivers a total recycling and resource recovery service that securely destroys data-laden devices, recovers value from surplus equipment and responsibly disposes of e-waste and large metal infrastructure.

In 2025 alone we recycled 364 tonnes of metal and 206 tonnes of e-waste for clients across New Zealand.

With over a decade of operational excellence, our recycling and resource recovery services span collection, logistics, processing and Blancco certified data destruction. It’s all underpinned by strict environmental protocols and full compliance with New Zealand’s waste legislation.

Nothing goes to landfill. Everything is recycled, repurposed or reused, to support a circular, sustainable economy.
