Retailers
Retailers are in a unique position to stock the brands they want to properly satisfy their customers’ needs. Profit maximization is also a key objective. However, there is also a responsibility to support electronics “take back” programs mandated for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Different states have different policies, so there is little consistent policy amongst the states (only 26 are legislated). National retailers have a big job on their hands to properly manage these programs.
However, there is a way to affectively address these state standards. By working with ECS Refining, we help your business work with various state programs so that your stores are compliant with state and national requirements. Your opportunities are two-fold:
- Resell returned electronics for a profit
- Properly recycle non-working electronics and protect OEM intellectual property/brand
Depending on the condition of these products and their packaging, you have a variety of opportunities from white labeled to black labeled resale, while protecting the brands of your manufacturers.
Not only can you work with ECS to disposition and resell products through vetted channels via our IT asset management and reverse logistics solutions, you can leverage the ServoTerra Remarketing Platform to repurpose your own IT assets to different company divisions or resell THEM for profit.
Recycling is the first covenant of responsible asset disposition. Firstly, we will try to help you resell your product. Secondly, we can make sure your OEM products are safely processed through 100% end-of-life processes conducted within the US, and certified by e-Stewards BAN.
