Our data center services

  • IT asset disposition (ITAD) & data sanitisation – we securely erase data-bearing devices using leading data-security technology, so you can be sure sensitive data can't be recovered - while getting the best possible value back from hardware that can be reused.
  • Secure dismantling & decommissioning – we decommission data centers of any type on-site, tracking every asset by serial number so you always know where your equipment is.
  • Physical & mechanical data destruction – when devices can't be safely reused, we destroy them mechanically, shredding drives to a certified DIN 66399 particle size.
  • Complete recycling solutions - we also recycle all non-data-bearing materials from data centers, including metal structures, cabling, and packaging.
  • Hauling, shipping & logistics – we take care of secure, nationwide transport for decommissioned equipment and data-containing materials, keeping the chain of custody intact the whole way.

How secure data center decommissioning works

1
Assessment & planning

We review your site, equipment and compliance requirements to scope the project.

2
Secure decommissioning

We have the in-house project management expertise and an extensive partner network , that enables us to take on even the largest data center decommissioning projects.

3
Transport under chain of custody

We securely haul equipment to our certified facility, maintaining the chain of custody and restricting access to customer’s data at all times.

4
Data sanitisation or destruction

We wipe devices using leading data-security technology, or shred them mechanically to a specified particle size according to DIN 66399 standard.

5
Reuse, recycling & reporting

We reuse assets where possible, recycle responsibly otherwise, and give you full certified documentation.


Retain more value from your existing IT assets

We restore value wherever we can. Whenever data security allows, we choose reuse over destruction. Reuse extends the life of equipment and reduces environmental impact.
