Hemplan are aware of the legal , moral and data protection responsibilities that companies face when trying to decide what to do with there unwanted IT equipment.

So let us help you to make the right choice.

If you have old or faulty equipment then it will need to be handled and disposed of in the right way to make sure that your data is protected and that where possible the materials are recycled.

Hemplan offer a data protection certification service where we ensure that the hard drive of the machine is destroyed or level 7 wiped (depending on your requirements).

We also offer a material segregation process whereby the unit will be stripped down and those items that can be recycled will be sent off to specialist recyclers.

Example. ( A Standard Desktop PC unit )

Components Notes
Case The plastic facia is removed and the steel recycled
Motherboard Segregated and sent for gold recovery
Hard Drive Segregated and sent for aluminium recycling
Slot card Segregated and sent for gold recovery
Processor Segregated and sent for gold recovery
Memory Segregated and sent for gold recovery

Be responsible for your waste, don't just skip it.

Please Note
Hemplan currently handle a large percentage of this type of equipment without any charge but it is expected that new legislation implemented in 2004 will mean that we may have to start making a small charge for this service.
