- Offer special WIPE formatting service to guarantee security of business’s data on computer hard drives, including a certificate of data protection.

- Offer certificate of recognition to company for using an environment friendly recycling solution of IT equipment.

- Recycling is a necessity to avoid damaging the environment. Governments have acknowledged there has to be corrective action however there is far too little being done. Computer parts contain lead, mercury, chromium and cadmium that do not harm people in their natural state, however if they are dumped the contaminants will eventually seep into our soil and water supply causing sickness & environmental damage.

- Some 99 000 tons of used electronic and computer equipment was accumulated in Canada in 2005 alone; of these thousands of tons only 10.5% will be recycled. ‘It is much too small, this quantity will strongly increase between now and 2010, and this waste still contains toxic heavy metals (lead, mercury, chromium, etc.)’, explains Duncan Bury, the responsible for electronic recycling questioning at Environment Canada.

- We appreciate, and strongly support the economic benefits of responsible environmental practice and will introduce numerous environmental initiatives to our recycling business.

RECYC-IT will evolve into one of Canada's most solid companies, based largely on sound economic and environmentally sustainable practices.
