Committed to making a positive impact within the supply chain world , MCPC embraces a variety of sustainable practices . “ A significant aspect of this commitment is reflected in our ITAD facility , where we incorporate security and sustainability throughout our processes . For example , when it comes to the end of life of devices , we securely take them to our ITAD facility where they will either be repaired , refurbished , remarketed , or recycled . For items that are beyond repair and can ’ t be repurposed , we leverage multiple downstream recycling processes to ensure we are retiring devices in an environmentally responsible way . Additionally , we leverage sustainable best practices across our lifecycle management operations . Therefore , we utilize reusable packaging and eco-friendly shipping methods in both forward and reverse logistics processes . Notably , MCPC has developed eco delivery carts that enable our clients to receive their devices in a secure manner while reducing the need
for excessive dunnage . In certain situations , we have had the opportunity to work with our manufacturing partners to minimize their use of Styrofoam , which is notoriously hard to recycle . Instead , we have been using cardboard , a much eco-friendlier alternative . Another example of MCPC ’ s adoption of sustainable practices lies in our collaboration with manufacturing partners who can create custom builds tailored to our clients ’ needs . This allows us to remove unnecessary items in the build , such as keyboards , mice , and monitor stands because they may not be required by a specific client . Although these items can be recycled sustainably , we would rather avoid having to do so in the first place ,” highlights Joe .
