Sustainable IT recycling for government & public organisations
Secure data handling during the IT recycling process
Protecting confidential data is critical, as unauthorised access could lead to financial losses, reputational damage, and regulatory fines. This is especially important in government, councils, frontline services and across the public sector generally.
Managing IT recycling responsibly is critical for the public sector, with nearly 6 million people employed across services like education, healthcare, social care and emergency services. From sensitive employee records to personal information about the public, safeguarding data is a fundamental obligation.
Protect public sector data – recycle IT securely
Our reliable, secure process ensures the safe handling and destruction of all sensitive data stored on servers 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.
When replacing IT equipment and disposing of redundant devices, choose Zero Tech Waste for secure data deletion and eco-friendly WEEE recycling. We ensure your data is handled in compliance with relevant policies and regulations, providing you with complete peace of mind. Find out more about how we manage your IT recycling.
