Extending Server Life. Reducing E-Waste.
ICD is committed to extending the useful life of enterprise IT equipment. Every refurbished server part we sell is one less component in a landfill — and every server kept running is one less new server manufactured.
Circular IT Economy
ICD operates at the intersection of the circular economy and enterprise IT. We source, test, and redistribute server components that would otherwise be discarded — giving them a second (or third) life in data centers worldwide.
500,000+ Parts Recirculated
Our catalog of 500,000+ enterprise parts represents a massive reduction in manufacturing demand. Each refurbished memory module, SSD, or processor avoids the carbon footprint of new production — raw material extraction, semiconductor fabrication, and global shipping.
EKODAQ — Certified IT Disposition
Through our sister company EKODAQ, ICD offers certified IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) services. When equipment truly reaches end-of-life, we ensure responsible recycling with data destruction certification.
Third-Party Maintenance
Our ICD Care+ (TPM) service extends server life by 3-5 years beyond OEM end-of-support. This directly reduces data center refresh cycles and the environmental impact of manufacturing new servers.
