GreenTek Solutions is proud to announce a strategic investment from Sumitomo Corporation of Americas. This marks an important milestone in the company's continued growth. As part of this investment, GreenTek Solutions is now an equity-method affiliate of the Sumitomo Corporation Group. This creates new opportunities to expand secure, sustainable IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) services in the U.S. and abroad.

Supporting the Future of the Circular Economy

The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing, and large-scale digital infrastructure has accelerated the construction and expansion of data centers worldwide. As organizations upgrade servers, storage systems, and network equipment more quickly, they retire older IT assets more often. Secure and responsible disposal of these retired assets is increasingly important.

IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) has become an essential part of the technology lifecycle by providing organizations with secure services that include:

• Collection and logistics.
• Certified data destruction.
• Equipment refurbishment and resale.
• Responsible recycling and material recovery.

As demand grows specialized processing and data security, skilled ITAD providers play a key role. They help businesses maximize asset value while supporting environmental sustainability.

Building on GreenTek's Proven Track Record

Founded in 2012 and based in Texas, GreenTek Solutions is a trusted provider of enterprise IT Asset Disposition services. Delivering comprehensive lifecycle solutions, from secure collection and certified data destruction to refurbishment, resale, and environmentally responsible recycling—for many of the nation's leading organizations.

GreenTek has earned internationally recognized certifications related to quality management, information security, and environmental compliance within the IT reuse and recycling industry, demonstrating its commitment to the highest standards of operational excellence and responsible IT asset management.

These include R2v3 certification, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certifications. Combined with the company's proprietary tracking systems, these certifications provide customers with complete traceability, secure data handling, and environmentally responsible processing from initial asset collection through final disposition.

To date, GreenTek has processed over 1.2 million devices. This helps organizations cut electronic waste and reduce greenhouse gas emissions through responsible reuse and recycling.

Expanding Opportunities Through Global Collaboration

This investment provides GreenTek with additional resources to support future growth while expanding its ability to serve enterprise customers with secure and sustainable IT lifecycle solutions.

By combining GreenTek's ITAD expertise and platform with Sumitomo Corporation Group's global network, both organizations will develop new opportunities. These opportunities will maximize value across the full lifecycle of IT equipment.

The collaboration also supports future international expansion, leveraging GreenTek's established U.S. operations as a foundation for growth into additional markets, including Japan, while promoting a more circular supply chain through the reuse and responsible management of IT assets.

Together, GreenTek Solutions and the Sumitomo Corporation Group remain committed to advancing sustainable business practices that reduce environmental impact while creating long-term economic value.

This partnership reflects GreenTek's continued commitment to helping organizations securely retire technology, recover maximum value from IT assets, and advance circular economy initiatives. As demand for enterprise ITAD services continues to grow, GreenTek remains focused on delivering secure, compliant, and sustainable solutions that customers can trust.
