Electrolux case study - key requirements for global ITAD vendor

Electrolux prioritized selecting a ITAD vendor with a strong global presence capable of meeting its requirements for managing used IT equipment through resale, refurbishment, or recycling, while also focusing on security and environmental considerations. 

One of the pivotal reasons Electrolux chose SK Tes is the unique ability to provide comprehensive sustainability reporting through the Carbon Loop calculator. This tool offers detailed insights into the environmental impact of IT asset disposition, including metrics on carbon footprint reduction and resource conservation. This report stands out in the industry as the only one that is externally validated and verified and this capability aligns with Electrolux's sustainability goals.

SK Tes swiftly intervened to assist in the urgent removal of over 3,700 pieces of unwanted IT equipment.
