Accreditations
Today, with ever more stringent penalties for non-compliance, no business organisation can afford to take risks when selecting partners for IT asset management and disposal.
Get it wrong, by selecting partners who operate on a 'no questions asked' or 'loose answers given' type of service, and you expose yourself and your organisation to massive risks and dangers.
BTR UK, on the other hand, operates to the highest independent, auditable standards, which means we provide you with complete confidence in the ethical and environmental credibility of our service.
We hold a number of IT asset management accreditations and IT asset disposal accreditations. This is a critical consideration when you are selecting you partner for IT asset management and disposal.
Among the licences and accreditations we hold are:
Waste Management Licence – Licence No: EAWML 50486
We are licenced by the Environment Agency of England and Wales to store, treat and dispose of redundant IT and electrical waste. We are regularly audited by the EA, who are given full visibility of equipment handled, volumes processed and disposal routes used. This costly and comprehensive site licence demonstrates our commitment to the ethical and responsible processing of the inevitable portion of waste that arises from our asset management work.
Approved authorised treatment facility (aatf) – Licence No: WEE/FH0003ZS/ATF
We are licenced by the Environment Agency of England and Wales to operate as an Approved Authorised Treatment Facility which allows us to both process WEEE and to issue evidence notes for the treatment, recovery and recycling of that material.
Waste Carriers Licence – Licence No: NSO/547385/CB
We are licenced by the Environment Agency of England and Wales to transport hazardous and non-hazardous IT and electrical waste. A Waste Carrier's Licence must be held by anyone transferring or collecting waste, under the terms of the Environmental Protection Act 1990.
