Willian Santos ????
Intl. Sales Manager at ABI Electronics| Manufacturers of Diagnostic & Reverse Engineering Systems for Sustainment & Repair of Critical Electronics | Founders of #RepairDontWaste | 2024 UK Sustainability Champion Award ??
The winds of change are blowing strong in the electronics industry, and a powerful alliance has been recognized for its leadership. ABI Electronics , a renowned manufacturer of electronics test and repair equipment, and the Repair Don’t Waste movement have been jointly awarded the prestigious 2024 Sustainability Champion Award by Engineering Matters. This recognition highlights their collaborative efforts in promoting sustainable practices through repair and eliminating industrial E-waste.
Engineering Matters , a respected publication focused on advancements and innovations in engineering, established the Sustainability Champion Award to recognise companies and initiatives leading the charge towards a greener future. ABI’s commitment to manufacturing tools like the BoardMaster , a sophisticated yet user-friendly board tester, empowers technicians to accurately diagnose and repair electronic components efficiently. This focus on repair directly aligns with the Repair Don’t Waste movement’s mission of extending the lifespan of industrial, commercial and defence electronics and minimising e-waste generation.
The award not only recognizes the innovative technology offered by ABI but also underscores the importance of a cultural shift within the electronics industry. Traditionally, replacing malfunctioning components has been the norm. However, ABI’s equipment, coupled with the Repair Don’t Waste philosophy, encourages companies to prioritise repairs, fostering a more responsible approach to electronic waste management. This not only benefits the environment by reducing the massive amount of e-waste piling up in landfills but also translates to significant cost savings for companies across various sectors.
This well-deserved recognition for ABI and Repair Don’t Waste serves as a beacon for the entire electronics industry. It demonstrates that innovation and responsible practices can go hand-in-hand, paving the way for a more sustainable future. Their collaborative efforts highlight the potential for a significant reduction in e-waste and a shift towards a circular economy, where resources are used efficiently and waste generation is minimized. This award paves the way for a broader adoption of repair-oriented practices and a greener future for electronics.
