Announcing Zones' Participation at ITAD Summit 2025: Secure, Sustainable Disposal of IT Assets

IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) has never been more important in a world where environmental responsibility and data security are top concerns. Zones is happy to announce that we will be attending the ITAD Summit 2025, which will be held at The Bellagio in Las Vegas, Nevada, from July 29 to 30.

As a leader in ITAD services worldwide, we are eager to network with colleagues in the field, exchange knowledge about data destruction compliance, and investigate methods for an IT lifecycle that is genuinely sustainable.

Why ITAD Is Important Now

Companies are replacing hardware at previously unheard-of rates due to the speed of digital transformation, and every decommissioned server, laptop, or mobile device contains valuable materials and sensitive data. Organizations run the risk of data breaches, fines from the government, and missed opportunities to recoup value from retired assets if they don't have a strong ITAD program.

• Data security: 

  Proof of secure data erasure or physical destruction is required by laws such as the CCPA, GDPR, and HIPAA.

• Environmental Impact:

  In 2018, 2.7 million tons of e-waste were produced in the United States alone; inappropriate recycling can result in the release of hazardous materials into landfills.

• Financial Recovery: 

  Refurbishment and resale can recover as much as 50 percent of the initial hardware costs when handled properly.

Zones' End-to-End ITAD Services

With more than 20 years of experience, Zones provides a comprehensive range of ITAD services intended to safeguard information, protect the environment, and increase return on investment:

1. Certified Sanitization of Data

   Following NIST 800‑88 guidelines, we use methods ranging from degaussing and shredding to software erasure and cryptographic deletion. A tamper‑proof Certificate of Destruction is given to each device, guaranteeing that your company complies with regulations. Visit our ITAD Services page to find out more.

2. Recovery and Resale of Assets

   Through our global network of partners, usable hardware is remarketed after being tested and refurbished. Zones clients frequently recover a significant amount of their initial investment by converting end-of-life equipment into revenue.

3. Recycling in an Eco-Friendly Way

   To safely disassemble electronics, we work with recyclers who have earned ISO 14001 and R2v3 certifications. By reclaiming precious metals like copper, gold, and premium plastics, hazardous e‑waste is kept out of landfills and a circular economy is promoted. See the ISO 14001 environmental management standard and the EPA’s electronics management guidance for a more comprehensive view.

4. Personalized Reporting & Logistics

   Our logistics network guarantees safe chain‑of‑custody tracking for everything from single‑site pick‑ups to multi‑region decommissioning. Costs, schedules, and environmental metrics are all visible through real‑time dashboards.

What to Anticipate at the ITAD Summit 2025

The premier gathering for professionals working in IT security, sustainability, and operations is the ITAD Summit. In order to establish connections with attendees who share our dedication to safe, sustainable hardware retirement, Zones will be attending the Summit’s keynote addresses, breakout sessions, and networking receptions.
