Sustainability

E-cigarettes and liquid pods are electrical devices and must therefore not be disposed of with household waste when they are used up, but must be disposed of properly for e-waste recycling. The Take-Back Program, co-created with our partner the SENS Foundation, offers you the opportunity to return for free used VEEV NOW Ultra devices, VEEV ONE devices and empty VEEV ONE pods so that they can be disposed of responsibly and correctly, by specialized recycling partners.

No, the VEEV Take-Back Program is completely free of charge and you can also get the VEEV collection bags free of charge on our website when placing an order online, or in our IQOS Boutiques.

VEEV NOW ULTRA, VEEV ONE and their pods are classified as electronic waste and they contain many recyclable materials which should be recycled (nickel, lithium, and aluminum), reason for which they should not be disposed of with household waste, but in a dedicated and separate waste stream. This way, valuable raw materials flow back into the cycle. On top, these products are subject to the Ordinance on the Return, Take-Back and Disposal of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (ORDEE).

All VEEV products that are returned as part of the VEEV Take-Back Program are collected centrally by the Swiss Post and transferred to the specialized recycling companies identified by the SENS Foundation, which set up an industry solution for the proper disposal of e-cigarettes, including VEEV.
VEEV products are exclusively recycled by recycling plants that have the required permits and a SENS licence to process the corresponding device category. Visit this page to learn more: How e-cigarette recycling works in Switzerland (vape-recycler.ch)
