30+ Years
Greentec has served Canadian enterprise and public-sector clients since 1995, with zero reported data breaches and zero environmental violations across three decades.
One Program
Pickup, asset auditing, data destruction, refurbishment, recycling and reporting managed through a single accountable provider rather than a fragmented group of regional vendors.
“When Air Canada needed to retire more than 500 iPads used by flight crews, Greentec coordinated collection, chain of custody, certified data destruction, lithium-ion battery handling and material recovery. Air Canada reported that outsourcing to Greentec reduced internal workload while meeting security, regulatory and environmental requirements.”
Enterprise device retirement touches IT, security, legal, finance, sustainability and procurement simultaneously. Here is what a properly run program delivers to each group with a stake in the outcome.
Serialized, certificate-backed proof of destruction for every data-bearing asset, structured to support incident response documentation, legal holds and security audit requirements without manual reconstruction.
A single coordinated program replacing fragmented regional vendors. One point of contact, standardized procedures across every site and a chain-of-custody record that covers every device from pickup to final disposition.
Audit-ready documentation that satisfies PIPEDA obligations. Certificate-level records that hold up under regulatory review, not just vendor assurances.
Value recovery from remarketed equipment returned directly to the organization, creating a measurable financial offset. A single-vendor program also reduces the administrative overhead of managing multiple regional providers.
Recycling weights, CO2e avoidance metrics, landfill diversion rates and material recovery data delivered with each completed program, formatted for ESG disclosures, sustainability reports and board-level environmental commitments.
OECM awarded supplier status gives eligible organizations a competitively procured route to engagement. A single accountable vendor across all Canadian locations simplifies contract management and audit trails.
Data breach liability, tightening privacy regulation and growing ESG disclosure requirements have converged. An informal approach to device retirement no longer passes regulatory review, legal scrutiny or investor expectations.
Average total cost of a data breach in Canada in 2024, per IBM's Cost of a Data Breach Report. Retired devices with unverified data destruction are a documented breach vector.
Greentec is a Platinum-level OECM supplier partner. Eligible organizations can procure certified ITAD through a competitively awarded agreement, without a standalone RFP, and work with a single accountable vendor across Canadian locations.
Enterprises with offices, branches, data centres and remote workers across Canada typically have no standardized ITAD process, creating compliance gaps that no single regional vendor can close.

Large organizations retire thousands of devices every year through a mix of regional vendors, internal disposal and ad hoc drop-off programs. Each handoff is an uncontrolled gap in the audit trail and a potential breach point.
Laptops, servers, mobile devices and storage drives leaving an enterprise carry confidential business data, employee records and customer information. A missing chain-of-custody record cannot be reconstructed after the fact, and regulators do not accept good intentions as evidence.
Most large organizations manage device retirement through a patchwork of regional vendors, internal IT disposal and ad hoc drop-off programs. Each handoff is a gap in documentation and a potential breach point. One accountable provider across all locations changes the risk profile entirely.
When a compliance audit or legal hold requires evidence of how a specific device was disposed of, a Certificate of Recycling from a third-party vendor with no serialized asset records is not sufficient. Enterprise ITAD requires device-level documentation, not load-level.
Greentec operates as a single accountable provider across all locations. One program, one contact, one chain-of-custody record for every device across every site.
A documented chain of custody for every device, from the moment it is collected at any location to the certificate and settlement report delivered to your team.
Every service a large organization needs to retire technology securely, delivered as one coordinated program with a single point of contact and consistent documentation across every location.
One coordinated program from multi-site collection to final certificate.
End-to-end ITAD for laptops, desktops, servers, storage, networking hardware, mobile devices and peripherals across every office, branch and data centre location. Asset tagging, serialized tracking, certified data erasure or physical destruction, value recovery from remarketed devices and audit-ready reporting in a single managed program.
Rack-to-dock decommissioning for migrations, consolidations and facility closures. Coordinated planning, equipment extraction, sealed transport, certified data destruction and full chain-of-custody documentation through a single accountable provider.
NIST 800-88 certified erasure for reusable devices; physical destruction for drives that cannot be verified clean. Asset-level Certificates of Erasure or Destruction issued for every device processed, with supporting serialized reports for compliance and legal teams.
Collections across offices, branches, remote sites and data centres using standardized procedures. GPS-tracked sealed transport, security-vetted technicians, onsite packing available and documented handoffs that maintain chain of custody across every location.
Recycling weights, CO2e avoidance, landfill diversion rates and material recovery data structured for ESG disclosures, sustainability reports and board-level environmental commitments, delivered with each completed program.
Equipment assessed for remaining market value is tested, refurbished and resold. Recovered value is returned to the organization, offsetting program costs and giving finance teams a measurable return alongside security and compliance outcomes.

Independently audited to the highest data destruction standard in the industry through scheduled and unannounced inspections covering secure handling, chain of custody, employee screening and destruction procedures. Your security team does not have to take Greentec's word for the quality of the work.

Enterprise device disposal is a legal and regulatory obligation, not a facilities task. Greentec's certified chain of custody gives compliance, legal and procurement teams the documentation they need before an audit is called.

Federal PIPEDA governs how organizations handle personal information, including obligations that apply at end-of-life device disposal. Greentec's NAID AAA certification involves scheduled and unannounced audits, and asset-level certificates of destruction provide the auditable proof of compliance your legal and privacy teams require.
