Data Destruction

We all have a duty to dispose of old IT equipment in a safe and responsible manner. Recent stories in the press have highlighted the risk of sensitive data reaching the public domain, much to the embarrassment of companies and their executives.

At ITrenewals, we guarantee 100% data security as well as absolute compliance with WEEE laws and the UK regulations.

We can dispose of all types of storage devices and media including:

• Optical Media - CD's, DVD's, 12", MO and UDO
• Tape Media - AIT, SAIT, DLT, SDLT and LTO
• Disk Drives - 2.5", 3.5" and 5.25" disks

 Our process involves the following steps:

• Equipment Collection
• Inventory Report - A detailed schedule of all the equipment (Product Type & Serial Numbers)
• Removal of identifying marks
• Certificate of Destruction
  • Our process permanently erases all information to NATO and SEAP standards. A Data Erasure Certificate is provided, a requirement for the Controller under the Data Protection Act.
  • Faulty hard drives are shredded and the metal is recycled. A Granulation Certificate is provided for each destroyed drives.
• Environmentally friendly disposal
  • Equipment is recycled whenever possible
