Electronic waste is one of the fastest growing waste streams, and today only about 20 percent of used electronics are disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.
By 2030, 80 million tons of electronic waste are expected to be generated worldwide. We and HP want to help solve this problem.
Used IT Equipment
Since 2005, we have specialized in trading in used IT equipment. A skill that has only become more in demand as the global IT industry has sharpened its focus on sustainability. We have in-depth knowledge of the IT equipment's technical characteristics, and since the early start we have built up a unique and broad network to trade internationally, so that today we buy and sell used IT equipment domestically and internationally. In this way, we can help extend the life of IT equipment and at the same time reduce the amount of electronic waste by ensuring that it is recycled correctly after use.
Collaboration with HP on Sustainability
We have a close collaboration with HP on sustainability, and we are both companies that have a strong focus on the circular economy. While we ensure that used IT equipment is resold and has a longer lifespan, HP focuses on using more and more recycled materials in their products. So it's a collaboration we really appreciate.
HP manufactures all of their professional PCs in either aluminum or magnesium because metals are very easy to recycle. They also use materials such as ocean bound plastic, which is plastic found in nature within a 50 km radius of the ocean. HP has a strong focus on removing various types of waste from nature that can be recycled in their products.
