Upcycling IT significantly reduces carbon emissions

Refurbishing IT equipment dramatically reduces the carbon footprint compared to manufacturing new devices.
By buying just one upcycle it laptop, you are not only extending the lifetime of a laptop, you are also contributing to :

• Saving the environment of 200 kg of CO2

• Saving around 20.000 liters of water  

When choosing refurbished equipment from upcycle it, you help eliminate the carbon-intensive processes of raw material extraction, manufacturing, and transportation involved in producing new hardware.

Extend product lifecycles

By extending the life of existing devices, refurbishment avoids the environmental costs associated with premature disposal. This contributes to a circular economy where resources are kept in use for as long as possible.

• Less e-waste ends up in landfills

• Reduced demand for mining finite resources like rare earth metals

Supports sustainable procurement goals

More organizations are aligning their procurement strategies with Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals. Refurbished IT allows companies to:

• Meet sustainability targets

• Reduce Scope 3 emissions

• Demonstrate environmental responsibility to customers and stakeholders
