According to the
United States Environmental Protection Agency, MILLIONS of tons
of electronic waste ends up in US landfills every year. Toxic chemicals
in these products can leach into the land over time or are released into the
atmosphere, impacting nearby communities and the environment.
Disposing of e-waste in this manner is illegal and yet waste collection companies are not taking responsibility to ensure that consumers obsolete electronics are not ending up in landfills.
A plethora of consequences occur every year as a result of improper e-waste disposal - dangerous toxins are released into the air, chemicals are absorbed into the soil, e-waste is shipped to developing countries around the world where people don't have the equipment to handle it safety and so many more!
In an effort to limit these continuing consequences, Stealth Components is sponsoring an electronic waste recycling event from March 28th to April 19th.
We look forward to everyone's participation in this event and are excited to have a hand in ensuring the prosperity of the environment!

Buyers Establish New Strategies for Evaluating Supplier Quality
In today's advancing marketplace, riddled with counterfeit components and unpredictability, it has become increasingly difficult for components buyers to adequately measure and evaluate the quality of their suppliers. However, there are several strategic precautions buyers can take that will certainly help indicate their supplier's level of quality commitment and aid in reducing risk to their production line.
This supplier evaluation process begins with researching and finding out as much about the company's internal controls and quality management system as possible. Buyers will then be equipped with the information they need to make an official decision as to the true quality of the supplier.

China's restriction of mineral exports threatens Technology Industry
In an effort to stimulate growth within its own economy, China has recently put export restraints on several rare minerals that are required to make many of today's high-tech products. As a result, many countries with large electronics and technology manufacturing industries, such as Japan and the US, have filed formal complaints to the Word Trade Organization, condemning China's behavior.
China continues to limit rare mineral exports today and has not expressed any intention to repeal this policy anytime in the near future.
