Verified means we found it on the official register or the scheme’s own list on the date shown. Company says means it is stated on the company’s website and we haven’t checked it yet. Registers can lag behind, so “not found” or “no longer current” is not an accusation. What these mean.
Environmental claims
“Says its WEEELABEX-certified recycling keeps retired hardware out of landfill”
This is the company’s own claim, as stated on its website. We haven’t checked it. How to judge “zero to landfill” claims.
About Circular IT group (formerly Re-Tek)
Re-Tek began in the 1990s as an IT disposal and refurbishment business south of Glasgow and rebranded as Circular IT group from January 2025. The UK operation runs from a processing facility in East Kilbride, with an office in Bristol.
It collects retired IT from organisations, erases data with Blancco software (or shreds drives where wiping is not possible), refurbishes and resells what it can and recycles the rest. It also offers on-site data destruction, data centre decommissioning, IT rental and leasing, and pays for equipment with resale value.
The group says the UK operation is an SEPA-approved treatment facility and is ADISA and ISO certified. Its services are aimed at businesses and public bodies rather than householders.
