Give your old server components a new life
All servers have to be recycled by law in line with the WEEE regulations.
Servers contain harmful metals that can pollute soil and water if not disposed of responsibly. Recycling keeps these toxic materials out of the environment and allows valuable parts, like processors and memory, to be reused. This cuts down on the need for raw materials, saving energy and reducing the environmental impact of making new devices.
All components of servers and networking hardware can be recycled: Motherboards, cards, and CPUs contain recoverable metals like copper, silver, gold, and silicon. The hard drives & storage arrays, cables, power supplies, and optical drives all have recyclable components, even the metal and plastic cases can be reprocessed. Choose Zero Tech Waste and do your bit for the planet.
