National technology recovery infrastructure
Ego Technology operates two specialist centres that form a national infrastructure for secure technology assessment, recovery and material processing.
Together, these centres create a controlled, climate-conscious pathway that turns retired technology into measurable environmental and operational value.
No fragmented suppliers.
No uncontrolled handoffs.
No breaks in accountability.
Midlands Centre - Technology assessment & data control centre
Our midlands based facility acts as the secure intake and evaluation hub for retiring technology assets. Devices undergo controlled logging, certified data management and reuse-first assessment to determine the most responsible pathway for each asset.
This ensures security, preserves value and prioritises circular reuse before recycling is considered.
Bradford Centre - National Critical Materials WEEE Processing Hub
Our Bradford facility provides high-capacity processing and specialist material recovery at scale. Technology is dismantled, segregated and streamed into compliant reuse, recycling and critical material recovery pathways — including rare earth and precious metal extraction.
This enables enterprise and industry partners to move large volumes of technology securely while supporting circular manufacturing and reduced reliance on virgin extraction.
Responsible Management
Our purpose
Organisations are under increasing pressure to protect data, meet regulatory requirements and demonstrate environmental accountability across the full lifecycle of their technology assets. Managing this through multiple suppliers increases risk, reduces visibility and weakens control.
Ego Technology provides a secure, structured alternative — one partner, one controlled lifecycle, and one clear framework you can trust.

We operate serious national capability that others don’t
Ego Technology operates two specialist centres that form a secure national framework for technology lifecycle management.
Our assessment and data control centre in Burton on Trent provides secure intake, asset tracking and reuse-first evaluation to determine the most responsible pathway for each device.
Our high-capacity processing and recovery hub in Bradford manages compliant recycling and material recovery at scale, enabling valuable components and materials to remain in circulation.
Together, these facilities allow organisations to stream large volumes of technology securely, efficiently and with full accountability, something fragmented supply chains cannot provide.

Responsible technology recovery
Responsible technology management goes beyond compliance.
We prioritise reuse wherever possible, extending asset lifecycles and reducing waste. Equipment that cannot be reused is processed through compliant recycling and advanced material recovery pathways that keep valuable resources in circulation.
Our re-use first approach also supports digital inclusion initiatives, ensuring technology recovery contributes to meaningful social value alongside environmental responsibility.
