As a family orientated business, we take our corporate social responsibility (CSR) seriously. We are continually finding new ways to improve our business to be as environmental and socially responsible as possible.

At CHG-MERIDIAN, we realise that only sustainable business models can be successful in the long term. This involves moving away from a linear economic model where products are manufactured, used, and then disposed of, and toward a circular model that focuses on repair and reuse. That is why we regard end-to-end lifecycle management as one of the biggest challenges of our time – and as the core discipline of our company.

We support our customers along the entire lifecycle of their technology assets, from rollout and use to certified data deletion, refurbishing, and remarketing. Reusing devices instead of procuring and then disposing of them every time conserves resources and improves our environmental footprint.

We have been refurbishing used equipment at our Technology and Service Centres for the past 15 years. Devices undergo visual and technical refurbishment in line with the principles of green IT. We also have a global network of certified refurbishing partners who recondition equipment locally to the highest standards. We are proud of our refurbishing rate of 96 per cent. But what about the rest? Any equipment that cannot be reused is sustainably returned to the material cycle through our certified recycling partners.

We have been successfully remarketing on the international secondary IT market for 40 years. By professionally refurbishing and remarketing IT equipment, we are able to extend its useful life. We also have an international network of certified partners. In 2022, we remarketed almost 924,000 assets in total. Every single one makes a difference and conserves valuable resources.

In May 2019, we received the unfortunate news that one of our dear colleagues, Frances Emery, sadly passed away.Frances was with CHG MERIDIAN for over 20 years and was one of the most beautiful and genuine people you would ever hope to work with. This was devastating news for all of us, and especially many of our colleagues who worked very closely with Frances over this time. Frances was diagnosed with Motor Neurone disease some time ago, and as a result, had to stop working in April 2018. Many of her close friends and colleagues at CHG kept in regular contact with her, and she was always upbeat and positive about her situation, despite the awful nature of it. It is because of this terrible situation that we have decided to form a partnership with the Motor Neurone Disease Association (MNDA) as we attempt to support this wonderful charity in their fight against Motor Neurone Disease.Click here to see a list of all the fundraising activities and events we have already done and also the future events we are running.
