Secure Decommissioning focuses on the safe retirement and recycling of mobile assets in compliance with ESG policies and data privacy laws.
PiiComm’s sovereign, in-country managed mobility services can support your disposal needs. View our Secure Decommissioning Guide for in-depth insights.
We use industry-standard software to wipe 100% of data from devices, providing Certificates of Destruction for every serial number.
For non-viable assets, we perform physical destruction of devices and SIM cards to prevent any possibility of data recovery.
We assess functional legacy equipment (like Zebra TC56 or Honeywell scanners) for trade-in credits or resale on the secondary market.
From pickup to processing, we maintain a strict "Chain of Custody" with tracked transport to our secure processing facility.
All e-waste is processed in accordance with EPRA (Electronic Products Recycling Association) standards, supporting your zero-waste initiatives.
