Recycling

How do you turn a compliance burden around redundant technologies into cost savings of 90% on capital expenditure, and enhance your green IT credentials?

As legislation, such as the WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) directive, puts the spotlight on compliance, we can help you fast turn a challenge into an opportunity and get more for less from your IT infrastructure investment. This is because our advanced recycling services optimise the value in your redundant equipment, whilst our focus on delivering sustainable IT guarantees not only best practice in process and accreditations, but also full compliance - WEEE, ROHS, ISO 9001:2000, ISO 14001:2004, ISO 27001 - Information Security Management Systems, ISO 20000 - IT Service Management, SEAP Approved Granulator.

We help you achieve these benefits through recycling technologies back into your business - working with you to profile users and agree what’s fit for purpose. If you have an electronic catalogue we will integrate with it; if you don’t, we provide access to ours.

With the UK’s most advanced facilities and systems around recycling, we will help your organisation deliver competitive advantage: creating cost savings; improving efficiency around the supply chain; and enhancing brand values - by reducing the negative impact of IT on the environment.

Our recycling centre is unique within the UK as we are the only IT company that has a facility to manage the end-to end process in-house for recycling, refurbishment and disposal of IT (including the secure removal of data), which means carbon and cost reduction through the removal of unnecessary logistics and increased data security throughout the process. 

The services that we offer through our recycling centre that support our customers recycling requirements includes: -

• Dedicated Remarketing and Refurbishment capability for equipment that is no longer required or fit for business but still has a commercial value, which means we provide value back to the business by reselling the old equipment (having securely removed the data) and generate revenue that is paid back to the business – after all they are your assets.
• Refurbishment to enable the reutilisation of your existing equipment, which can include storage in our recycling centre and the provision of a catalogue via a web portal so that you have full visibility of your available equipment. This will reduce carbon emissions and capital expenditure.
• Disposal of equipment that is no longer fit for purpose, and with no commercial value, which is securely erased and processed, creating recycled raw material, which means we can provide you with the necessary certificates and reporting showing full compliance with all legislative and legal requirements.

In addition to these service offerings, we can offer toner and mobile phone disposal services.

All of the processes we undertake are in line with ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO20000 and ISO27001 and we are unique in that we can physically destroy category 3 IT waste on one site.

In addition to the above accreditations we are MOD Approved for onsite data wiping and degaussing.

In terms of capacity we have the ability to process over 600,000 assets per year and have a dedicated Sales and Customer service team to support our processes and customers.

We will work with you to design a set of operational procedures that will support your existing IT/business processes but enable you to utilise our approved tried and tested recycling processes which means you will benefit from secure, dedicated collection, with step by step asset tracking services as well as internal asset management system lifecycle, which provides the information for data erasure certificates and destruction certificates. In addition we can provide bespoke environmental reports which can be used to promote your green credentials and support your CSR policies and governance.

We get things done. Don't just take our word for it, see below our Recycling references...
