Warum engagiert sich Econocom Remarketing für den Umweltschutz?

Um katastrophale Folgen zu vermeiden, hat sich die Weltgemeinschaft darauf geeinigt, dass die Erderwärmung unter 2 Grad Celsius gehalten werden muss. Die aktuellen staatlichen Zusagen reichen jedoch nur für eine Begrenzung auf maximal 4 Grad. Wir sehen freiwillige Emissionsreduzierungen als zwingend nötig an und haben uns deshalb entschlossen, unseren CO2-Ausstoß systematisch zu reduzieren und wo möglich auszugleichen.

Wie trägt Econocom Remarketing zum Klimaschutz bei?

Wir verfolgen eine Klimastrategie in drei Schritten: Vermeiden, Reduzieren und Kompensieren von CO2-Emissionen. Zusätzlich engagieren wir uns in zahlreichen Initiativen, wie 'Allianz Klima', und sind Mitglied im Bundesverband nachhaltige Wirtschaft.

Welche Zertifizierungen hat Econocom Remarketing im Bereich Klimaschutz und Nachhaltigkeit?

Im Jahr 2020 wurden wir mit dem ersten Preis im Wettbewerb 'Büro & Umwelt' ausgezeichnet. Bereits 2019 haben wir den Energie-Spar-Preis der Stadt Schweinfurt erhalten. Zusätzlich sind wir als leitungswasserfreundliches Unternehmen von atip:tap anerkannt.

Sustainability | Econocom Remarketing (formerly bb-net)

More than just profit: Our pursuit of social value.

About us

High customer satisfaction and quality standards as well as innovative solutions are our daily bread — a better world, our motivation.

Profit isn't our only goal. We purchase pre-owned business IT, professionally refurbish it, and give it a second life because we believe this is the right approach.

Our climate strategy
in 3 steps.

We have taken concrete measures to reduce our environmental impact and offset unavoidable emissions through climate protection projects. Our strategy follows three steps:

Avoiding environmental pollution

Reduce CO₂-impact

Compensate for unavoidable emissions

“As an environmental and climate politician, I am impressed by bb-net’s [today Econocom Remarketing] sustainable business practices. By processing used IT, such as laptops, the company is making an important contribution to the careful use of our natural resources.”

Dr. Anja Weisgerber

So far, we’ve given over 1.000.000 IT devices a second chance.

Because refurbished IT is a smart choice.

We demonstrate that refurbished IT, thanks to high quality standards and professional processing, is a genuine alternative to new products – and at a significantly better price. Our goal is to strengthen awareness of the circular economy in businesses and society, so that refurbished IT is recognized as the smarter choice.

Our goal
up to 2030

2,000,000 refurbished IT devices.

Not only our ambitious goal of 2,000,000 refurbished IT devices, but also the small goals are important on the way to a sustainable circular economy.

FAQs about climate protection

Why is Econocom Remarketing committed to environmental protection

To avoid catastrophic consequences, the international community has agreed that global warming must be kept below 2 degrees Celsius. However, current national pledges are only sufficient to limit warming to a maximum of 4 degrees. We consider voluntary emissions reductions to be imperative and have therefore decided to systematically reduce our CO2 emissions and offset them where possible.

How does Econocom Remarketing contribute to climate protection?

We follow a three-step climate strategy: Avoid, Reduce, and Offset CO₂ emissions. Additionally, we are involved in numerous initiatives, such as "Allianz Klima," and are members of the Bundesverband nachhaltige Wirtschaft.

What certifications does Econocom Remarketing have in the area of climate protection and sustainability?

In 2020, we were awarded first prize in the 'Office & Environment' competition. In 2019, we also received the Energy Saving Award from the City of Schweinfurt. Additionally, we are recognized by atip:tap as a tap water-friendly company.
