Around 80 percent of the CO2 emissions related to IT products such as computers, tablets and smartphones come from the actual production of the equipment. By buying used IT equipment, deleting data and enabling it to be sold again as recycled IT equipment, Refurb helps to save large amounts of CO2. Refurb A/S was sold to Egiss Group in June 2022.
Refurb was established in 2008 and has since experienced good growth in both revenue and the number of employees. Refurb is one of three companies in the Nordic region that are authorized to use Microsoft on used equipment.
The management of Refurb believes that everyone has abilities and therefore a place in the labor market. Therefore, there is room for both employees in ordinary and in special positions at Refurb. In 2022, the company had around 55 employees, of which approximately 25 percent are in special positions, with special skills or on their way away from the edge of the labour market.
