Who says Switzerland<br />

has no natural resources …?<br />

Urban mining helps<br />

to complete the raw materials cycle.<br />

Enabling highly developed economies that have no<br />

natural deposits themselves to satisfy their needs for<br />

raw materials necessitates exploiting secondary<br />

resources still more efficiently. Hence Switzerland<br />

already collects thousands of tonnes of aluminium,<br />

iron and copper each year. The SENS system contributes<br />

a substantial share of these valuable and<br />

increasingly scarce raw materials, by recycling used<br />

electrical and electronic appliances.<br />
