ERS-International, a Sparta Group company, announced that it is officially opening the first industrial-scale e-waste recycling facility in the country of Oman. The expansion of Sparta's recycling services comes at a time when the Gulf Region is feeling increased pressure from a mounting e-waste problem. Located in Salalah, the capital city of southern Oman's Dhofar province, Sparta's ERS International facility is one hundred thousand square feet of working space with the ability to expand another five hundred thousand feet if/when required.

ERS is bringing years of experience from its successful Toronto, Ontario recycling facility to Oman with the full support of the government of Oman. The Oman e-waste facility is expected to process at least five hundred thousand pounds in the first year of operation and double up each year. A digitized pick-up system will make it easy for companies to do business with the Oman operation.

All that is required is an App and a simple click to request service. A large network of trucks across the region will be picking up the e-waste upon request. The Toronto ERS-International facility has built a strong reputation among some of the best- known brands spanning across multiple industry sectors, including the retail sector, electronics manufacturing sector, as well as financial, automotive, health care, government and university sectors.

Customers have come to count on ERS for not only safe, secure e-waste destruction and recycling, but also upcycling, secure data destruction and asset remarketing. Recently the Toronto operation announced it was launching a fully certified carbon credit program to help customers offset greenhouse gas emissions.
