The Circular Economy
REDUCE
Material & New Products
Consumers generate demand, but so do manufacturers.
The current climate, dominated by digital, intensifies both sources.
Such high demand from both parties creates quick product cycles.
Perceived product relevance, suitability, and usability are distorted.
REUSE
Working Equipment
Current equipment already manufactured is suitable and functional.
Most equipment released to the market isn't end of life or even end of extended support.
Even better, at the enterprise level is equipment that has been ordered but unfulfilled.
Unfulfilled stock includes manufacturer warranty, is ready to use, and heavily discounted.
To fulfil a new project requirement, as-new stock is the first choice.
RECYCLE
Old Obsolete Hardware
Defining hardware old or obsolete is project-specific.
In the industry, most refresh cycles are normally around 5-7 years.
IT asset disposition entails the proper process of recycling old hardware.
If unusable, the hardware is stripped to components for reassembly or refining.
Save Your Staff
Improved Health
As nature is circular, what we waste is what we consume.
Less emissions produced from powering product manufacture and energy use is cleaner air, reducing the chances of respiratory disease.
Less toxic WEEE from non-circular disposal is cleaner soil, allowing for safer drinking water and food consumption.
Green Investment
Savings from products that aren't brand new can be invested into your workforce.
A portion of the finances can be directly put to staff.
Green efforts can be incentivised and rewarded, such as utilising green processes, reusing or repairing tools, and procuring refurbished equipment.
The investment and savings are circular, benefiting everyone in a business.
Higher Morale
Improved health and financial standing allows for greater confidence and capability.
Coupled with greener spaces, people have better mental well-being.
Connecting is easier and everything more meaningful, enabling creative ideas.
For business, everyone is more productive.
