Decades of experience in securely refurbishing and responsibly recycling devices
Technology that is no longer suitable for your business may still be valuable to another user. Instead of disposing of devices or letting them sit in a storage cupboard, choose our secure and sustainable ITAD service.
Our mission is to refurbish and give a second life to as many devices as we possibly can. With extensive experience, certifications, and industry-specific knowledge, we ensure secure and compliant disposal.
Our refurbishment centres process hundreds of thousands of devices every year. Through our expert product extension techniques, we’ve successfully made millions of devices available for reuse, helping public and private businesses across Europe embrace the circular economy.
9 out of 10 laptops, desktops, monitors, smartphones and tablets processed by our centres are refurbished and given a second life.

FAQs
What happens to non-functional products that are returned to BNP Paribas 3 Step IT?
As part of our security management procedures, every device handled by BNP Paribas 3 Step IT first undergoes a secure data erasure process, using best-in-class data sanitization software. Equipment is then assessed and graded based on its quality. The equipment that can no longer be used is recycled by our trusted recycling partners. We only send our equipment to recycling plants that are operated in accordance with the EU’s Waste Electrical and Electronic (WEEE) Directive.
What devices do you buy?
We work closely with our customers to help them responsibly manage end-of-life devices, including desktops, laptops, tablets, smartphones, servers, network equipment, printers, AV equipment and monitors.
How do you determine the price for my devices?
We determine the device value based on the technical specification, condition and the current market demand. The equipment is graded using an ‘error points’ system, where points are given based on the type and number of defects found on the device. The total number of error points determines the unit’s grade, which in turn defines its value.
Why should I outsource data sanitization?
Most IT departments have limited resources and carefully disposing used IT equipment can fall to the bottom of the to do list. When old devices are stored away for any period, often unmonitored, they present a data security risk. This can be further compounded when in-house IT teams do not have the experience or access to certified data sanitization software. This can lead to errors in the process and a risk of data exposure.
