What are the benefits?
As a company supplying new IT hardware and support services, we are in a unique position to offer an all-encompassing solution, including a sustainable strategy for device lifecycle management.
By re-using assets rather than recycling them, we help to reduce the environmental impact associated with the manufacturing of new electronics. For each collection of IT equipment, we provide a comprehensive carbon-saving report as standard.
We offer industry-leading financial returns for working and non-working IT equipment. This can be offset against the purchase of new devices or services, reducing your total cost of ownership.
We are a business accredited to ISO 14001 and ISO 9001, our robust Information Security Management System provides complete duty of care from the collection of your used assets through to data destruction and certification. As part of our service, we use industry-leading sanitation software to ensure compliance.

Review & reduce
In recent years, concerns over climate change have led responsible organisations to review and reduce their carbon footprint but the focus on switching to renewable energy only goes part of the way to addressing the issue. One study suggests as much as 240KG of fossil fuels, 22KG of chemicals and 1500KG of water are used in the supply chain and production of a single computer.

Delivering the difference
When taking this into account with the potential to reduce the number of new devices manufactured outlined above, ITAD Lifecycle Services can deliver a real difference in the battle against carbon emissions. As a key intermediary in the IT asset lifecycle, we recognise that we have a duty of care to help minimise any environmental impact when assets are retired.

Planting more trees
For every asset that we process, we plant 1 tree. Our goal is to plant 10,000 trees per annum via our ITAD solutions, offsetting both the carbon footprint of our own operations and supporting our customers to recycle IT assets with minimal environmental impact.
