Device Europe, an IT asset disposition (ITAD) provider operating in Poland and the Netherlands, has been awarded the EcoVadis Platinum Medal. It is the highest level in the EcoVadis rating system and places us among the top 1% of companies assessed worldwide for sustainability, ethics and environmental management.
In our previous assessment, we received the Silver Medal and set ourselves a clear next goal: Gold. We went one step further. This result reflects the consistent work of our whole team in putting ESG principles (Environmental, Social and Governance) into daily practice across our ITAD, certified data erasure, refurbishment and remarketing services.
EcoVadis is one of the most widely used sustainability rating platforms in global supply chains. Its methodology is based on international standards, including ISO 26000, the International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions, the UN Global Compact principles and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guidelines.
Each company is assessed across four themes:
Environment – carbon management, energy efficiency, waste reduction, resource use and circular economy initiatives.
Labour & Human Rights – workplace safety, equal opportunities, employee development and respect for human rights throughout the value chain.
Ethics – transparency, anti-corruption policies, regulatory compliance and risk management.
Sustainable Procurement – supplier selection and evaluation, environmental and social risk management, and collaboration with certified partners.
The Platinum Medal is awarded to companies whose results place them in the top 1% of all organisations rated by EcoVadis.
Many organisations now assess their suppliers as part of sustainability, CSRD and supply chain reporting. When choosing an ITAD company, an EcoVadis rating gives procurement, IT and ESG teams independent, third-party evidence of how a provider manages environmental, social and ethical risks.
Working with an EcoVadis Platinum ITAD provider means:
lower supplier risk in sensitive processes such as secure data erasure and the end-of-life handling of IT assets,
support for your own ESG, CSRD and supply chain reporting,
a partner whose commitments are verified externally, not only self-declared.
The Platinum rating builds on management systems and certifications we have developed and maintained over many years:
information security management certified to ISO/IEC 27001:2022,
certified management systems under ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001,
R2v3 certification for responsible electronics reuse and recycling,
B Corp certification, confirming our commitment to balancing profit with people and the planet,
transparent procurement procedures and cooperation with responsible suppliers.
Risk Management & Compliance – alignment with international standards, certified data erasure with Blancco software and a transparent chain of custody.
Financial Value & ROI – IT asset recovery, lifecycle optimisation and remarketing of refurbished IT equipment, combining economic and environmental benefits.
Operational Efficiency & Transparency – process automation, standardised reporting and traceability of each IT asset.
Sustainability & ESG – a long-term commitment to carbon reduction, e-waste minimisation and supporting clients in reaching their own sustainability goals.
Reaching the highest EcoVadis level raises expectations, and we take that seriously. Our focus now is to maintain this standard in future assessments while continuing to improve: strengthening risk management across our supply chain, developing an ethical and inclusive workplace and reporting our progress openly.
We would like to thank our team, clients and partners. This result belongs to all of you.
