IT Recycling and Disposal
When businesses retire old tech, it’s not just about getting rid of it—it’s about protecting data, the environment, and your accreditations. If you’re ISO 27001 certified or hold Cyber Essentials or perhaps it is about GDPR, you need to show that you’re handling IT asset disposal securely and responsibly.
Fortis IT Recycling Services
Using a sustainable recycling provider means your data is properly wiped, assets are tracked, and everything is documented. It also shows you’re serious about data protection, reducing environmental impact, and staying compliant.
Skipping this step or using the wrong provider can risk your certifications, your reputation, and even lead to fines. Don’t be tempted to sell your old tech off on eBay or cheaply. This can lead to many problems as data can be recovered. This isn’t just a back-office task—it’s a key part of your security and sustainability strategy.
