AfB social & green IT

AfB is the first non profit IT Asset Recovery Solution Provider in Europe. Since 2004, our mission is to generate place of works for disable people while delivering a professional solution for electronics waste. We provide our customers with a very efficient solution for maximizing return and minimizing the risks associated with data security and improper handling of end of life IT assets. Our concept is based on a strong cooperation with large and medium size companies, as well as public institution, which use to provide us with their no longer used IT equipment. We are able to pick up the equipment anywhere in Europe and provide them with a web based secure track reports to inform about asset recovery, computer disposal, computer recycling and a full data eradicated certification on all equipment. We first concentrate on the best way of recycling by reselling the equipment through our AfB shops offering a 12 months warranty on each equipment.
