4TH BIN is so proud of our own Cory Kline for participating in DISASSEMBLY: Brooklyn’s panel discussion on smart sustainability, e-cycling, and consumer electronics at A/D/O.

DISASSEMBLY: Brooklyn is a participatory art installation that explores our obsession with technology and the untold story of the consumer electronics lifecycle, as well as the devastating environmental and labor conditions of offshore recycling. The artwork translates the global consumer electronic waste cycle into an immersive experience with a social conscience.

4THBIN 4GOOD: Ars Memoriae

4THBIN is honored to announce that we have provided 601Artspace with e-waste for the exhibition of Ars Memoriae. 4THBIN supplied cables, circuit boards, computers, phones, and other obsolete electronic assets to help the artists assemble their projects. The equipment making up the pieces would have otherwise ended up in landfills or incinerators if not for 4THBIN’s efforts to recycle them properly first.

Our 2023 Earth Day event with Industry City allowed us to help the community securely recycle 2,822 pounds of e-waste - the weight of two adult male polar bears!
