Why embrace circular IT procurement
Embracing circular IT isn't just good for the environment – it's great for your business and can help you:
Reduce your Carbon Footprint
Reduce CO2 emissions on IT refresh projects by using a mix of new and remanufactured hardware.
Avoid E-waste
Ensure IT assets are ethically and securely disposed of, or repurposed at market value and don’t end up in landfill.
Make significant savings
Cut IT costs while maintaining top-notch performance.
Increase circularity and reduce carbon emissions in your IT ecosystem
When IT assets in your ecosystem reach last date of support (LDOS) or end of life (EOL) we’ll work with you to refresh that fleet to more power efficient models and/or consult with you on a more sustainable IT design.
There are a number of options we can provide through the process that will reduce the carbon impact of your IT project including the following.
Procuring refreshed hardware
We work with several vendors, including Cisco to offer an alternative to buying new hardware every time you refresh.
Products are:
● Certified by the vendor
● Come with exactly the same warranty and support options as new equipment
● More cost-effective vs the new list price of the same model
● Carbon efficient as they haven’t been produced from scratch
Ethical Disposal of IT Assets (asset recycling and reuse)
Our IT Asset Disposal (ITAD) services ensure we completely remove data from old devices so they can be reused or remanufactured, avoiding landfill and recovering any residual value.
We provide a certified guarantee that will meet audit purposes on:
● Data Security: Military-grade wiping techniques protect your sensitive information.
● Compliance: Meet all regulatory requirements for data destruction and disposal.
● Value Recovery: Maximise the residual value of your retired assets through refurbishment and resale.
Takeback (Cisco only)
As an environmentally specialised partner in 15 countries Logicalis is eligible to access the Cisco Takeback program on our customers behalf.
The takeback program lets Cisco equipment owners return hardware that has reached end-of-use, at no cost. Your Account Manager can share more details on the program as part of a product refresh discussion.
