2. Recycle End of Life ICT Equipment. The Information Age has created a virtual tidal wave of electronic devices including computers and monitors that become obsolete or wear out at an ever-increasing rate. The demand for newer, superior technology has increased the pace at which current devices reach the end of their useful lives. As a result, the question of what to do with obsolete electronics has become a global issue. Disposal is not the answer. Computers and other electronics need to be properly handled by a responsible recycling company rather than being sent to a waste disposal company.
3. Recycle End of Life ICT Equipment. We feel that re-use is the best form of recycling and would work closely within the Organization's guideline for cleansing data sensitive equipment and the remarketing of it.

4. Recycle End of Life ICT Equipment. We believe that, whenever possible, recovery is the best environmental solution for electronic equipment that contains reusable components. The first step in our process is to test equipment to determine if it can be reused. If so, we make sure that any data containing components are sanitized and all information is removed. In this way, we can return profits to our customers while assuring them of the security of their proprietary information. They also receive certification that their equipment has been properly recycled and their data has been destroyed.
