The E-Waste Problem
Electronic waste is the world's fastest-growing waste stream. Every year, millions of devices end up in landfills, releasing toxic materials into our environment.
- 50+ million tons of e-waste generated globally each year
- Only 17% of e-waste is properly recycled
- E-waste contains toxic materials like lead, mercury, and cadmium

Our Sustainability Principles
We're guided by a commitment to environmental responsibility at every step of our process.
Refurbish First
We prioritize refurbishing and reselling devices to extend their lifespan, keeping electronics in use longer and reducing demand for new manufacturing.
Responsible Recycling
Devices that cannot be refurbished are sent to R2-certified recycling partners who follow the highest environmental and safety standards.
Energy Efficiency
Our facilities use renewable energy sources, and we continuously work to reduce our operational carbon footprint.
Circular Economy
We believe in keeping resources in use for as long as possible, extracting maximum value while minimizing waste and environmental impact.
