Marketwired
AnythingIT, Inc. (OTCBB: ANYI), a leading information technology
electronics recycler and e-waste handler serving both government
and commercial markets for over 20 years, today announced it is now
e-Stewards Certified as well as ISO 9001 certified. e-Stewards
certification requires that recyclers meet the world's highest
standard in responsible electronic recycling. The e-Stewards
Standard for Responsible Recycling and Reuse of Electronics was
developed by the Basel Action Network (BAN), a 501(c)3 non-profit,
charitable organization in the United States. The e-Stewards
Standard sets the bar for globally responsible recycling of e-waste
and prohibits export of hazardous e-waste to developing countries.
e-Stewards recyclers must be certified by independent auditors,
or certification bodies, that are specially trained and accredited
to audit to the e-Stewards Standards. The rigorous, on-site audits
are performed at least once a year. By holding all four
certifications combined with a GSA Schedule and Congressional
Recommendation with the United States government, AnythingIT
continues to reinforce its standing as an elite service provider in
the electronics recycling and re-use industry. The ISO 9001
standard contains requirements for a quality management system and
process whereby an organization must demonstrate its ability to
consistently provide product that meets customer and applicable
regulatory requirements.
AnythingIT CEO David Bernstein stated, "We are proud and excited
to be one of the few certified recyclers to hold the e-Stewards,
ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and R2 certifications. We believe that the
standards we implement in our business reflect our passion for
doing things right for both our customers and the environment."
