This investment aims to give broken electronic devices a ‘second chance’, thus increasing the number of refurbished and repaired electrical and electronic equipment, in line with circular economy objectives. 

The support programme ‘repair bonus’ provides funding for households in the form of vouchers that cover 50% of the costs for repairing or renewing electric and electronic equipment. The repair bonus was officially launched at a joint press conference in April 2022. 

Since then, it has been highly demanded by households. It can be redeemed in a large network of participating repair workshops across the whole country. Till August 2026, at least 400.000 devices will be repaired or renewed thanks to this investment.
