Why Certified Matters

Certified facilities are assessed by an accredited third-party auditor against environmental, data security, and worker safety standards, and are re-examined on a recurring cycle rather than certified once. When you hand over end-of-life equipment you remain responsible for how it is handled, so the audited controls and the documentation that comes with them are what limit your exposure.
