Corporate sustainability
At Kimbrer Computer, sustainability has always been at the very heart of our business. Our core business, selling used and refurbished hardware, is simply as sustainable as IT gets. This means, what we do can be an important key for our customers to reduce the negative impact of digital infrastructure.
Business model and
strategic ambition
Our core business is buying and selling used and refurbished IT hardware. Products are bought, dismantled, and picked up from enterprises and professional sellers. Upon the hardware's arrival at the Kimbrer Computer warehouse, all data is securely deleted from devices, tests conducted, and individual parts prepared for recycling or refurbishment. On average, 96% of parts are reused and resold on the global market.
It is our strategic ambition to become the world's best warehouse for used and refurbished hardware. Not the world's biggest, but the world's best measured in terms of quality, customer satisfaction, and financial performance.

Thirdly, 2021 was the year where we obtained the reputable ISO 14001 certification as a testament to our work in the area.
