e-Stewards, a leading certification for responsible electronic waste management, announced that Recycle Global Exchange (RGX), the neutral marketplace for companies to dispose of their enterprise assets, has joined the e-Stewards Enterprise Program. This e-Stewards’ partnership reflects a growing need for trusted systems that help companies manage end-of-life electronics with greater transparency, accountability, and environmental responsibility.
The RGX platform delivers a single, neutral exchange that maximizes value for Enterprise Asset Disposition (EAD) across multiple locations, and helps companies make more informed decisions about where their hardware goes next. This partnership confirms the RGX commitment, and prioritization of certified processors, such as those e-Stewards Certified for their platform users, and as an enterprise.
“Enterprises need clear, trusted channels for managing technology assets at the end of their use,” said Selena Turnock, Certification Director, e-Stewards. “RGX’s marketplace model helps bring greater visibility and consistency to asset disposition decisions, while their participation in the e-Stewards Enterprise Program reinforces the importance of verified standards in protecting people, the environment, and the integrity of downstream recycling systems.”
The e-Stewards certification is widely recognized as the leading standard for ethical electronics processing, helping enterprises identify electronics processors that meet strict requirements for ethical, responsible recycling and reuse. Processors that achieve e-Stewards certification must comply with strict export controls, safe materials management practices, and independent verification measures, including audits and GPS tracking. These safeguards are designed to prevent hazardous e-waste from being exported to developing countries, ensuring the responsible handling of materials of concern, and maintaining verified downstream accountability throughout the recycling chain.
“Managing enterprise hardware at end of life can be complex, especially when assets are distributed across multiple locations, service providers, and markets,” said RGX Co-founder Sean Miles. “RGX, simplifies the process and helps companies recover value, and connect with trusted service providers. Our partnership with e-Stewards strengthens our model by helping support responsible electronics processing.”
