IT Hardware Services believe that our proactive approach to extending IT equipments’ life cycle helps protect the
environment, whilst being key to good Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) practices.

Sustainability is a central part of IT Hardware Services philosophy. We provide professional IT equipment disposal services across the Channel Islands where we refurbish for reuse used IT equipment along with our core data destruction and recycling services of nonreusable IT assets. The reuse of used IT equipment means that we are helping keep our planet that little bit greener.

Sustainable IT solutions provide by us:-

• Recycling equipment to component level to recover the natural resources from the original manufacturing process

• Refurbishing equipment for a 2nd lifecycle

• IT Hardware Services has a unique service in the Channel Islands that fits with most clients ESG demands

IT Hardware Services provideds clients with measured CO₂ savings for all equipment we refurbish for reuse. These CO₂ savings and reduction from the original production environment can be achieved by choosing to purchase refurbished equipment over purchasing new equipment or by allowing your equipment to be refurbished for reused and a 2nd life cycle.

We formulated a method to calculate CO₂ saved from total loss when an IT asset is refurbished for reuse rather than destroyed and recycled on all products we process.

We evaluated lots of data from major manufacturers and calculated the savings from total loss the amount of CO₂ that has been saved by us refurbishing equipment for reuse, this in turn is then reported to our clients via our on-line ITAD reporting system.

At ITHSCI our ESG values focus on excellent service provision and engagement with our clients, to provide sustainable services, focusing on:

ENVIRONMENTAL

• Re-use of E-waste, where possible

• Sustainable E-waste recycling for equipment that’s not fit for reuse

• Pollution prevention

• Sustainable data destruction solutions for reuse over destruction

• Re-use of materials over disposal or recycling

SOCIAL

• Provision of cost-effective refurbished equipment for local resale

GOVERNANCE

Proper IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) can align with your ESG goals in many ways. There are several core components of ITAD, including data security, re-marketing and recycling, and each of them provides substantial ways to enhance ESG.

Our commitment to recycling solutions ensure that no needless e-waste is discarded in landfills or through waste to energy facilities. We recycle and re-sell as much equipment as possible. Any IT assets such as desktops, laptops, servers, screens, storage arrays, network equipment, printers, portable devices, etc that can be refurbished are re-marketed for sale, through various sales channels including our local e-shop, thereby contributing to a Circular Economy model. This prevents useful IT equipment from being prematurely scrapped and extends the product’s useful life span, helping the Channel Islands move towards a zero e-waste future.
