Our ITAD facility in Kontich
Our Belgium facility is highly certified and plays a key role in supporting circular IT across Europe.

Creating social impact through circular IT
Tech should create opportunities. That belief is deeply rooted within our Belgium and European operations.
We work closely with social impact organisations, including Close the Gap and Digital for Youth. Through these partnerships, retired devices are securely processed, refurbished, and prepared for projects that improve access to technology and digital inclusion.
This work helps bridge the digital divide while extending the useful life of IT equipment.
More than 28,000+ devices were refurbished and delivered to Digital for Youth programmes, helping young people gain access to the technology needed for education and development.

What B Corp certification means for you
Working with a B Corp-certified ITAD provider offers more than secure asset disposition.
It means partnering with a business that has been independently assessed against recognised standards for social and environmental responsibility.

Continuous improvement through recertification
B Corp certification is not a one-time achievement.
Certified companies must undergo recertification and demonstrate ongoing progress through updated assessments, evidence reviews, and independent verification. Companies are required to maintain the standards expected by B Lab and continue improving their impact over time.
That ongoing accountability helps ensure our commitments remain measurable, transparent, and meaningful.
Frequently asked questions
-
What is the B Corp certification meaning?
A B Corp is a business that balances profit with positive impact for people, communities, and the environment. B Lab independently awards certification and assesses performance across governance, workers, community, environment, and customers. For Circular IT group, B Corp certification reflects our commitment to creating long-term value beyond financial results.
-
What impact metrics and reporting do clients receive?
Clients receive detailed reporting that supports sustainability and ESG initiatives. Depending on the service, reports can include asset recovery data, reuse and recycling rates, carbon avoidance figures, donation outcomes, and certificates of data destruction and recycling.
-
Are Circular IT group’s ITAD services available outside Belgium?
Yes. Circular IT group operates globally, supporting organisations with consistent ITAD and circular IT services. Standardised processes, certifications, and reporting frameworks help ensure the same high standards across all our European facilities.
-
What support is provided to align ITAD with sustainability goals?
Our specialists work closely with customers to understand their ESG targets, circularity objectives, and reporting requirements. This helps create an ITAD strategy that maximises reuse, reduces waste, and delivers measurable environmental and social impact.
-
How does the ITAD process work for new clients?
Every engagement begins with understanding your IT environment, security requirements, and sustainability objectives. From secure collection and transport to certified data erasure, refurbishment, remarketing, reuse, and responsible recycling, every asset is tracked through a fully documented chain of custody.
-
How often does B Corp certification need to be renewed?
Companies that hold B Corp status must renew their status every three years. During recertification, companies undergo a new assessment and verification process to demonstrate they continue to meet B Lab’s standards for social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. This ensures certified businesses, like Circular IT group, maintain their commitment to continuous improvement and positive impact over time.
-
How is B Corp different from EcoVadis?
Both certifications, B Corp and EcoVadis, assess different aspects of responsible business. The focus of B Corp is on a company’s overall social and environmental impact, while EcoVadis rates sustainability performance for supply chain and procurement purposes. Having both demonstrates an independently verified commitment to responsible business practices and provides employees and clients with greater confidence in sustainability efforts, covering multiple areas.
