Indiana Department of Environmental Management Tours ERI Facility
PLAINFIELD, Ind.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ERI, the nation’s leading fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company, hosted 20 representatives from the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) for a tour of its Indiana facility earlier this month.
During the tour, ERI shared best practices in e-waste recycling and data destruction with the IDEM team and demonstrated how ERI’s state-of-the-art technology works.
ERI maintains eight state-of-the-art e-waste recycling centers, including the world’s largest e-waste recycling facility, in Plainfield, Indiana, where millions of pounds of electronic waste are responsibly recycled each year.
ERI has been providing comprehensive electronic waste recycling services in Indiana since 2008 and was the first recycler in the state to be R2 and e-stewards certified as well as NAID AAA certified at the highest level for data destruction. In fact, ERI is the only certified e-steward in Indiana that maintains its own glass cleaning, comprehensive shredding and data destruction technology in-house. Last year, ERI relocated its Indiana location to its current 315,000 square-foot facility, the largest of its kind in the world.
