Eco-friendly IT recycling solutions for healthcare providers
Protect patient data with secure data handling during the IT recycling process
Protecting confidential patient, staff and business data is critical, as unauthorised access could lead to safeguarding problems, financial losses, reputational damage, and regulatory fines. Our reliable, secure process ensures the safe handling and destruction of all sensitive data stored on servers, computers and storage media at all stages of recycling. Plus, we can take away all your other IT recycling, for example computers, laptops, monitors and printers to provide an all-in-one WEEE recycling solution.
WEEE recycling: supporting the NHS sustainability strategy
In October 2024, the NHS released the Design for Life roadmap, a policy focused on adopting a circular approach to medtech, aiming to reduce waste and promote sustainability.
At Zero Tech Waste, we are dedicated to supporting this initiative by providing secure, cost-free solutions for healthcare IT asset disposal, including the reliable erasure of sensitive data. Our recycle-first approach ensures responsible e-waste management while safeguarding your organisation’s personal information, helping align with the NHS’s commitment to a sustainable future.
We recycle healthcare technology
This includes dialysis, X-Ray, MRI and ultrasound machines, ventilators, radiotherapy equipment, lab equipment including oscilloscopes, monitoring and control equipment, automatic dispensers, and much more.
We collect and recycle laptops, desktop computers, mobile devices, servers & telephony equipment, monitors & displays, printers and accessories.
In fact we can recycle most e-waste (WEEE) for FREE, but note that there are a few items that we charge to collect.
