The responsible and sustainable use of resources is a growing challenge for organizations. This also applies to the environmentally compatible use of IT throughout the entire lifecycle – from production to disposal. In this context, Green IT means, on the one hand, operating IT solutions and devices in a way that conserves resources and, on the other hand, avoiding waste and electronic scrap.
In the case of IT hardware, most emissions and the greatest consumption of resources are caused by production. In contrast, only a small part of all electronic products are recycled and returned to the cycle. Extending the useful life of IT equipment is therefore the most sustainable and effective solution for reducing environmental impact and the first step towards Green IT.
LESS CO² POLLUTION, MORE DATA PROTECTION.
CANCOM IT Remarketing offers a solution for your no longer used IT compliant with data protection regulations. We delete all data in a certified manner, refurbish your used hardware and take care of its remarketing. This extends the life cycle of IT products for the benefit of the environment. Electronic waste is avoided or professionally recycled, natural resources are conserved and CO² pollution is minimized.
WE BUY YOUR USED IT. YOU SAVE BOTH THE ENVIRONMENT & YOUR MONEY.
Selling your unneeded hardware and software relieves your organization physically as well as financially. We evaluate the marketing possibilities for you free of charge. With the repurchase, we take over warranty or repair claims and give the products a second or even third life. This increases your liquidity and at the same time protects the environment. If equipment is no longer suitable for remarketing, we ensure that it is disposed of properly and recycled, thus returning the raw materials to the production cycle.

We take a holistic view of IT solutions at the end of their initial use and act according to the concept of circular economy. We find the right solution for your unused equipment, whether functional or defective:
Refreshing & remarketing of functional equipment
Reuse of functional parts & components
Secondary recycling of raw materials
Professional disposal in accordance with the legal requirements of the Closed Substance Cycle Waste Management Act
We determine the residual value of your hardware and software that is no longer needed. In addition, we evaluate possible returns and costs, and take over the individual process planning.
Individual return scenario:: At CANCOM, IT remarketing can happen in the course of new purchases or also in the case of individual need - entirely according to your requirements. Once you have decided to return your used IT hardware, we will make you a buyback offer based on a residual value analysis. Would you also like the goods to be dismantled and picked up at your premises, or are they already "ready for shipment"? We will clarify with you the various options for rollback, i.e. returning the equipment to us.
IT refresh: You just want to refresh your hardware instead of replacing it completely? Repairing or upgrading your IT systems are also options in the sustainable recovery of IT equipment: Together, we define the possibilities of upgrading existing devices through memory expansion, data carrier upgrade, software or other technical upgrades without having to replace the complete hardware.

Depending on desire and requirements, we will dismantle and collect your old equipment and transport it back to us in a secure manner.
For us, the logistics of your IT equipment is more than just a transport from A to B. From the first to the last step of our planning and execution, we exclude all risks for your data and your hardware. This includes the provision of suitable and secure packaging up to the secured & sealed return transport to our service center. If desired, your hardware will reach our location by a direct drive in GPS-monitored security transport without any detours. Access by third parties is thus excluded.

We ensure the legally compliant, certified and audit-proof deletion of all data according to EU-DSGVO and the irrevocable destruction of your data media.
Legal data protection requirements: Since the introduction of the EU GDPR, companies are under even greater obligation to handle sensitive data responsibly and in compliance with the law. A breach of the GDPR can cost a company up to 4% of its annual global turnover or up to 20 million euros. The management is liable.
Play it safe with us: In the case of hardware, a simple erase command or formatting the hard drive is not enough to completely and permanently delete data from data carriers. The data can be restored afterwards. Only a complete process sequence for all data media that can be traced and certified at any time guarantees complete data security. We work with the most advanced methods of data erasure and provide you with documentation and certificates.
We delete your data 100% irrevocably: Together with you, we define the required security measures and implement them until EU-DSGVO-compliant data deletion or physical destruction at our premises - if desired, also at your site ("Erasure as a Service"). As a BSI-certified service provider, we guarantee that your data will be 100% irretrievably deleted before it is marketed or professionally destroyed.

We take care of the reprocessing and remarketing of your products and the environmentally friendly recycling of decommissioned equipment. You will receive a subsequent reporting.
Holistic view: We take a holistic view of IT solutions after the end of their initial use and act according to the concept of circular economy. Whether functional or defective, we find the right solution for your unused equipment.
Remarketing: We record the technical condition of your used hardware and software products, take care of refurbishment and remarket your IT.
Spare parts recovery & repair: In the case of very old, defective devices or devices with very specific application areas, refurbishment or marketing is economically unviable or simply no longer possible. In such cases, various components from PCs, notebooks, RAM, drives, housing parts or power supply units, etc. can still be reused. This results in a maximum recycling rate.
Recycling & disposal: Once resources have been optimally utilized or every possibility of repair and reprocessing has been exhausted, the remaining materials are disposed of in a certified manner in accordance with statutory environmental regulations. By adopting an ecological and sustainable approach to the disposal of equipment, we guarantee an environmentally sound solution.

You will receive the billing according to your request.
At the end of the IT remarketing process, you’ll receive a transparent statement in accordance with the agreed billing terms. You can return the proceeds to your company or use them to invest in new IT products. If required, we can provide a CO² certificate to you. You also have the option of supporting various sustainability projects. In this case, we will be happy to issue a donation receipt.

REFURBISHED IT WORKS RELIABLY. FOR YOU, TOO.
In every organization there are use cases where it makes sense to use refurbished IT. For example when there is a need for inexpensive spare parts, in case of limited budgets, bridging supply bottlenecks or short-term rentals, lack of availability of discontinued products, but also due to sustainability aspects. No matter if it is about the workstation including notebook, PC, smartphone, tablet & Co. or about data center infrastructure like network, storage or server – we are happy to help you out with the appropriate hard- and software.
QUALITY AND SERVICE ARE OUR TOP PRIORITIES.
We only supply technically overhauled equipment with tested functionality and a minimum one-year warranty, with optional CANCOM Care services for up to three years. Just as it’s the case with new hardware. Regarding used software, we provide you with a complete chain of custody from the previous owner to you.
