Electronics of all sizes, shapes, weights, age and technological complexity have increasingly become a necessity in our everyday lives. They have changed the way individuals, organizations and businesses communicate, get information, store information and are entertained. The ever-increasing need for newer, faster and more efficient electronics has led to a large number of electronics in the waste stream destined for landfills.
With a commitment to the responsible management of used electronics, Infinite Electronics Recycling reaches out to individuals, organizations and businesses to collect these electronics for repair and reuse or recycling rather than sending them into the waste stream.
By effectively managing used end of life electronics through recycling, IER helps protect the environment by keeping contaminants that are found in electronics such as mercury, cadmium, phosphors and lead from entering the air, soil and water. In addition to protecting our environment from contaminants, properly recycling used electronics also prevents valuable materials found in electronic equipment from entering the waste stream. Examples of these valuable materials are gold, silver, platinum, palladium, copper and cobalt. By recycling electronic equipment these natural resource materials can be recovered providing a sustainable solution to our planet's limited supply of natural resources and requiring less energy than mining new materials.
Effectively managing used electronics through a Repair and Reuse process reduces the need to manufacture new units, extends the useful life of these products, keeps them out of the waste stream and makes affordable electronics available to consumers, schools, and developing economies.
Today’s electronics, whether they are computers, servers, laptops, tablets, networking equipment, cell phones or watches may contain sensitive personal data. This data can include contact information, credit cards, medical histories, photos or personal information. IER is committed to data security and protecting this sensitive information. IER maintains certification to the R2 standard and has adopted the NIST 800-8 Revision 1 guidelines as its procedure for sanitizing media containing devices. Through training, documented procedures, independent party verification and secure storage, IER ensures sensitive data is not compromised.
By maintaining R2 certification, IER has demonstrated that it properly manages used or end of life electronics that pass through its facility which protects the environment, employee health and safety and sensitive data.
