SEIFFI service is a safe way to recycle memory-containing devices such as mobile phones and tablets. The data-safe recycling service is a collaboration between Kuusakoski, a specialist in material recycling, and Inrego, a specialist in reuse. The device memory is cleared in Finland and the device can be tracked from the Posti’s Parcel point to the point of destruction. If the device is no longer suitable for reuse, the raw materials it contains are recycled for industrial use.

Through SEIFFI, you can recycle your devices easily and securely. For devices that are sent for material recycling, the recycling is handled by Kuusakoski Oy.

Why SEIFFI?
80% of the environmental impact of IT equipment throughout its lifecycle occurs during production. A laptop computer uses thousands of litres of water and generates up to 1200 kg of waste. Sourcing raw materials from around the world is also problematic; for example, a smartphone contains more than 80 raw materials, including precious metals. By maximising the lifetime of existing IT equipment, we can significantly reduce the carbon footprint of IT equipment.
