Our Services

Secure Logistics

The initial step in our secure IT recycling process is Secure Logistics, an ADISA approved process that keeps your IT equipment secure during transport from your site to ours.

Each collection allocated a unique job reference number prior to crew arriving at site
Equipment tracked using this number through all transport and data destruction processes
No minimum quantities
Equipment collected loose, caged or palletised - whatever suits you
Equipment storage containers or cages for transportation are provided
Collection available throughout Ireland and managed within our sites in Belfast and Dublin

Collection Crew

Our fully vetted, experienced staff collect your old or unwanted IT equipment in GPS-tracked vehicles from your site for processing at our facilities.

Collections will be completed by two Vyta uniformed, fully trained and security vetted IT disposal experts
The equipment is returned to Vyta’s secure processing facilities in either Dublin or Belfast on the same day of collection
All collection crew carry photographic ID
Our crew pack all assets for transportation quickly and with minimal disruption to the client
Waste transfer forms are signed by each party on completion of packing, and a copy is left with the client, recording the details of the collection

Our Fleet

Our collection crew come to your site with appropriate IT equipment cages and packaging to ensure safe transit and limit possible damage to sensitive IT equipment.

Collections are completed in Vyta's un-marked vehicles fitted with the latest GPS tracking
Vehicles are always locked and attended
We have a range of vehicles available for collection including vans, solid-sided 7.5-ton and 12-ton trucks. Larger vehicles are available if necessary

Our Data Destruction Process

We provide a robust, process-led approach to data destruction which guarantees secure certified data destruction, without having a negative environmental impact. We work closely with some of the leading providers of National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) approved software, including Blancco, to ensure accurate, quality-controlled and fully documented procedures. We guarantee that 100% of data is permanently erased and unrecoverable from all IT equipment. Devices unsuitable for data destruction are securely shredded.

Wipe with Blancco...

We utilise the full suite of Blancco wiping software to wipe each drive three times before passing it as 100% erased. Data erased by Blancco cannot be recovered with any existing technology.

...or Shred

Other data-bearing media that cannot be successfully wiped or is not suitable for remarketing, are shredded to debris less than 20mm as standard (6mm upon request).

Scanned & Tracked

All assets - either data wiped or shredded - are scanned and tracked via our secure, bespoke tracking system.

Details recorded include:

item type;
collection date and site;
equipment make and model;
client asset tag or serial number;
item specification; and
processing details.

Certificate of Destruction

When the data is destroyed, we provide a certificate of destruction – giving you peace of mind that you have complied with regulations.

We also archive certificates for seven years, so proof of destruction for specific equipment is tracked and can be easily found.

Once data is destroyed, assets are either WEEE recycled or prepared for reuse.

Data-bearing items we erase:

Hard drives, laptops and PCs
Servers, network switches & routers
Mobile phones & smartphones
Tablets & PDAs

Data-bearing items we can shred:

Hard Drive Shredding

The Process

No matter what type of storage media you need to destroy, our mobile disk shredders are so powerful they can reduce all kinds of storage media into debris at your location, in plain sight, and in record time.

Stage 1

You tell us what you want to destroy and when you want us to do it.

Stage 2

Our mobile shredder arrives at your premises at the agreed date and time

Stage 3

Our security-vetted employees transfer your hard drives or media into the lorry shredder.

Stage 4

The media is shredded down into 20mm fragments (less than the diameter of a 5-cent coin), or even as small as 6mm on request. You can also witness the destruction first hand

Stage 5

We provide you with a Certificate of Destruction, so you know you have fulfilled your regulatory obligations.

Stage 6

We carefully dispose of the debris according to government and environmental regulations

During the shredding process your media is never left unattended, a DiskShred employee stays with it at all times. If required, we can also provide you with asset tracking with/without video evidence of your media being destroyed. All of these measures enhance your compliance under GDPR, with clear and detailed evidence of data destruction.

Asset Register

More than 80% of our clients request that their items are tracked as part of the shredding process, ensuring that they have confirmation of the data destruction of individual devices. To facilitate this request, we created an encrypted asset register for our clients’ highly confidential hard drives and storage media. This is also searchable by the type of media (e.g. hard disks, media tapes, CDs), the asset tag (serial number or other identifiers), the number of units and the date and time they were shredded.

More than ever, the sustainability of your supply chain is vital.

We provide a cost-effective solution to your IT asset disposal needs. Our expert refurbishment process enables us to maximise the quantity of clients’ IT equipment that is sold on, rather than recycled, thus providing a revenue return for our clients.

We endeavour to get the greatest return for you on each device. The revenue generated through the resale of equipment covers the cost of disposal for 9 out of 10 of our corporate customers, meaning they never need to pay an invoice.

IT Equipment Sales Channels

By selling through our multiple sales channels and comprehensive network, Vyta is not as vulnerable to market fluctuations as other IT disposal providers.

End-users

Our retail arm refreshedbyus.com is a premium reseller of quality refurbished laptops, desktops and PCs sourced from global corporations and government departments throughout the UK and Ireland. This is primarily a business to consumer ecommerce site.

B2B

Small businesses tend to have a limited IT budget and new equipment is expensive. We provide refurbished equipment of no more than three years old to SMEs, updated with faster drives and the latest Windows OS. This can have a huge impact on IT performance and productivity in general.

Education

Schools and colleges are constantly under pressure to reduce costs whilst also needing to invest in IT. However, increasing prices and budget cuts make this almost impossible to achieve. We resell premium branded IT equipment with upgrades and options in high volumes to the education market, as a lower cost alternative to purchasing new.

Trade

We have been reselling redundant equipment for over 15 years. During this time we have built up a large range of buyers and partners throughout Europe and the rest of the world. This enables us to guarantee the best return on equipment for our clients.

"If there is value in your organisation’s old IT, Vyta will help you unlock it."

We guarantee that all recycled equipment meets the relevant local and EU regulations on the processing of electrical waste. We provide a complete trail of the waste material’s journey to its final location to assure clients all waste we process remains within the EU.

We also issue a Certificate of Destruction to provide you with a guarantee that the items have been recycled. All recyclable equipment has the same level of security and traceability as refurbished equipment. IT assets that we process for reuse or recycling include:

PCs and peripherals;
Laptops, tablets and smart phones;
VOIP systems;
Servers, network and data centre equipment;
Server cabinets and racks;
Printing equipment; and
Media including Hard Disk Drives, Solid State Drives (SSD), and back-up tapes.

Approved Authorised Treatment Facilities (AATF) Centre

At our AATF centre, IT equipment unsuitable for resale is processed for recycling with suitable materials, including metal and plastics, recovered.

Initial depollution and separation of equipment is then completed and specific items such as rechargeable batteries, power cables, and printer cartridges are removed.

The remaining waste is then shipped to one of our accredited recycling partners. Our bespoke processing system enables us to identify the recycling destination of every asset that we process.

Our recycling partners are chosen based on their best in class recycling and recovery rates and are audited as part of our ISO27001 supplier process.

Your old IT equipment may still hold significant value. Equipment no longer in use by your organisation often holds a substantial value that your business can realise by selling it.

Vyta provide an IT equipment buyback service. Based on cosmetic grade of the equipment and current market conditions, we give a valuation of your old IT assets. Vyta can then purchase the equipment, following which it undergoes our secure process of data destruction, refurbishment and resale, unlocking maximum value for your organisation.

We can buyback fully functioning IT equipment regardless of brand, including:

Servers & storage

Laptops & desktops

TFT Monitors

Printers

Smartphones

Tablets

Network devices

Hard drives
