Not just e-waste: Why ITAD is the unsung hero of the circular economy

ITAD empowers circularity by extending IT asset lifecycles, ensuring secure disposal, reducing e-waste, and enabling affordable tech access.

by Abhishek Agashe, Co-founder & CEO at Elima
In the global push toward sustainability, conversations around the circular economy often focus on recycling, composting, or sustainable product design. Yet, there is very little discussion about refurbishment and remanufacturing, which ultimately increase the lifespan of products, thus powering circularity in the true sense.

Every enterprise, MSME’s and individuals today are powered by IT assets such as laptops, servers, desktops, networking, and more. These assets have a first lifecycle, and what happens at the end of that lifecycle is critical. Most people think of “e-waste” as the final chapter, but the story doesn’t end there.

According to a report by the United Nations, 53.6 million metric tons of e-waste were generated worldwide in 2019, with only 17.4% being recycled. This underscores the urgent need for businesses to adopt sustainable ITAD practices that align with ESG principles.

Another transformative impact of ITAD lies in its ability to democratise access to technology — a change that’s unfolding across India and the world. By recovering, refurbishing, and reintroducing high-quality IT assets into the market at a fraction of their original cost, ITAD makes laptops, desktops, and servers affordable for MSMEs, students, individual entrepreneurs, and small institutions.
