SATCoL’s IT Reuse scheme is giving second-hand devices a new lease of life
SATCoL provide a hub for businesses to donate excess, returned or faulty stock that can be reused, repurposed or recycled. Working together with brand partners, local authorities and schools, SATCoL lessens the environmental impact by extending the useful life of products.
SATCoL’s initiative is a free police and government approved data wiping and reuse solution. The project aims to save companies money and give unwanted IT equipment such as laptops, PCs, phones and tablets a new lease of life. By securely destroying all the data on the devices, SATCoL provides a secure solution to disposing of used IT equipment, with the additional benefit of repurposing them for resale. Donated equipment is distributed to SATCoL’s 240 retail outlets and sold via a dedicated e-commerce platform. This means donated equipment is made available to those where IT devices are needed and the funds raised from the resale are given to The Salvation Army.
SATCoL uses sophisticated software that will destroy the data from laptops, PCs, phones and tablets and ensures everything is removed to the UK standard. This includes the UK Police standard HMG Infosec Standard 5, which is certified by the National Cyber Security Centre as well as other world standards, including those in the US and Europe.
This service is fully funded by SATCoL which can significantly reduce spending for businesses currently paying for a IT Reuse service.
