Camara seeks every business operating in Ireland to commit to reusing their retired working computers prior to eventual recycling. For more compelling reasons on why computer reuse is the right thing to do watch the short movie below.
If you are a SME, our price promise ensures that you if you get a cheaper quote for computer recycling or data destruction, we will more than match it.
- 200,000 computers owned by businesses are recycled and effectively destroyed every year in Ireland
- Up to 80% of all recycled computers could be reused as digital libraries to educate disadvantaged children in Ireland and Africa
- It makes no sense to destroy these precious IT educational resources in the face of the worst global recession since the 1930′s.
Some of the reasons to give your computer to Camara:
- By reusing computers Camara is reducing the need for the manufacture of new computers, a process which has massive inherent environmental costs.
- Your data is wiped to US Department of standards ensuring that no third party has access to your personal information.
- Camara has developed and implemented procedures on waste prevention and management by the formulation of operational measures to encourage waste prevention.
- As a major part of their work Camara is collaborating with the Department of Environment on the formulation of a Reuse Protocol recommending the best practice course of action for business and consumers dealing with e-waste, specifically waste ICT equipment.
- Camara expects to have implemented a world class education package developed in conjunction with existing valued partners in the environmental education sector. In Ireland alone Camara will deliver this programme to over 2,000 schools in Ireland.
- Camara is working to establish an environmentally sound dismantling centre in Kenya in order to begin dealing with the vast volumes of waste being generated across the African continent.
- Based on existing content and examples from the work of the dismantling facility, Camara is creating a multimedia-based ‘Learning Pack’ that will be provided free of charge to educational institutions in Kenya.
