WHY PARTNER WITH US?

We live in a world where resources are running out. That is why we need to create value out of everything.

Sustainability is the core aspect of our business model. Together, we find solutions so that you can use your products and components for as long as possible, reduce energy consumption and have a positive impact on the environment.

But we offer more than sustainable benefits to our clients; we deliver tailor-made solutions that are efficient, save costs and allow your business to flourish. We know the importance of brand image and customer experience – and if we can address this for you whilst optimizing costs and using circular solutions, even better.

And with our support, you can take this sustainable approach too. Are you curious about how you could lower your carbon emissions? If you reuse rather than produce new, you can contribute up to 55% less carbon emissions per electronic device.

95%

Almost 95% of devices are reused and recycled by Drake & Farrell. These ‘good as new’ devices use up to 55% less carbon emissions than if new were produced.

20

In 2022, 60 million tonnes of electronic waste will be produced worldwide. In terms of weight, this is equivalent to 300,000 blue whales. Of that e-waste, 80% will end up in landfill and only 20% will be recycled.

70%

A stunning 70% of the weight of an average electronic device comes from minerals and rare metals. With a shortage on raw materials, prices have soared, and profit has reduced.

Our Solutions

Reverse Logistics

In six smart steps, we turn returns into new products and relieve our clients of the administrative burden. As functioning products are repaired and refurbished, you can save more than 50% of raw materials on every device by harvesting and reusing components. By reusing at WEEELABEX standards, not only devices become good as new but we ensure compliance on EU safety and health legislations.

We are convinced efficient returns should save you time and that a quick turnaround of products improves your customer experience. Our return intake therefore ensures fast and efficient registration throughout a fully system-controlled return process. Once a device is quality checked, we assess and report back to you so that together we can improve the way you use your resources.

Forward Logistics

The efficient movement of goods from seller to buyer in forward logistics is operated flexibly and reliably by us. Using fully tracked shipments to benefit the operational process, we offer you profitable results and cost-efficient solutions to satisfy you and your business.

With over 15 years of experience, we ensure flexibility even in seasonal periods while safeguarding your products as a TAPA member. When inbound shipments are received, they are stored in our A+++ energy certified warehouse. Our paternoster space-saving storage solution ensures reliable pick and pack. Our efficiency then contributes towards reduced costs and end-customer satisfaction for you.

Value Creation

Circular solutions with active value creation generate positive changes because we save energy and costs by reusing raw materials versus new production. We can work with you to better our planet and future generations, and if this means value is added and your brand image is boosted, even better.

In easy steps, together we look at how your production process can be aligned, generating profit and reuse in a smarter way. By repurposing, reconfiguring, and recycling devices, we offer innovative solutions which benefit you operationally, financially and sustainably. Our procurement services, spare parts management, kitting, and remarketing services result in added value for your business. Partnering with us means that we support you on your journey of being a pioneer.
