Green circular economy

Sustainability and responsibility are key cornerstones in our DNA and every day, we make an effort in how we do business and act. Being the trailblazer for a green circular economy obviously entails that we also take initiatives ourselves that affect us internally as well as into the world. Read about some of them here.

CSR program

Donate to others

We provide you with the opportunity to donate part of your profits from the sold equipment. The amount is forwarded by us safely and security to an initiative working with social responsibility. You choose the initiative you want to support or together, we can find you the perfect fit.

Start a wave

Leading the way for everyone else can have a positive effect and encourage others to take action! When you do business with us, you can let your stakeholders know that you have a green and sustainable IT strategy. You will receive a sustainability icon which can be used on your digital platforms and in your marketing. The icon comes with a description and documentation. You will also receive a certificate which documents the specific CSR efforts made by selling your used IT equipment.

Certified sustainability

The strong values of sustainability and credibility as equals are the key elements in our DNA. This is deeply ingrained in us and we practice what we preach. This is why we follow the environmental management system based on several ISO standards.

When we work on destruction of used equipment, we cooperate with partners that are certified by the ISO 14001 standard. This serves as a gaurantee that partner's environmental management is adhered to. Furthermore, our partners are also certified at the ISO 45001 standard level. We have a declared goal of having 98 % of the IT equipment we bring in and assess be aimed at being reused. All other equipment with no resale value will be handled in accordance with ISO 14001. We work to ensure that our partners live up to all requirements for sorting of raw materials, etc.

Danoffice IT Green & UN’s Global Goals

The resource mark made by the IT business has been heavy. Therefore, we at Danoffice IT Green are proud of being part of making a difference. Central to our DNA is adhering to UN’s Global Goals in our work. This is an element which has been amplified by becoming a part of Danoffice IT which in fact is a leading global IT supplier to IGO's and NGO's and which follows the highest CSR standards in the business.

Responsible comsumption and production

In 2015, UN implemented 17 Global Goals that have become the true foundational points of reference for going green. Global Goal #12 is named Responsible Consumption and Production and it directs the course for the sustainable development headed towards 2030. Naturally, this global goal is an element of our DNA and our business.

One of the basic concepts is that we need to reduce our combined mark on nature in the way we produce and consume our merchandise and resources as quickly as possible. The result must be financial growth and sustainable development. These are two elements often seen as opposites yet in this context, they go hand-in-hand.

A central element to this global goal is a focus on how to dispose of toxic waste and limit pollutants. This focus is directed at both the individual consumer and the industry. The goal is awareness and action as it relates to recycling and reducing our overall amount of waste.

Therefore, at Danoffice IT Green, we have a special assignment in ensuring that we contribute to helping companies to adopt this consciousness and becoming a part of a more green and circular economy by allowing us to retrieve and dispose of their used IT equipment in an environmentally safe manner all while adding a value to the business.

Global Goals create new awareness

CO2 emissions

80 % of CO2 emissions are created through manufacturing. As such, every time a product is recycled and not discarded, the environment wins! Longer lifespans equal a smaller carbon footprint.
E-waste

E-waste is increasing at a faster rate than any other waste issue because only 20 % of IT related equipment is recycled or reused. Even in Denmark, which is a trailblazer, only 50 % is collected and reused.
Revive your IT equipment

Old or used equipment often disappear within the companies and end up in warehouses. It often stays there for so long that it loses all value. We are working to create awareness about the ability to give it new life and value, even early on.
