Circular IT
Circular IT Limited brings together an experienced management team, technical expertise and circular economy partnerships to benefit your organisations.
Circular IT Limited brings together our management team led by Steve Willock, a 35-year veteran and management consultant in the UK computer sector; and a collaboration of the very best Refurbishment and Remanufacturing experts and ITAD Service Providers, working in the circular computing economy.
“Having worked for the last decade in parallel with the IT and the UK Energy sector, focusing on sustainability for low carbon solutions to heat and power procurement, it became clear that the challenge for public sector computer replacement is mirrored across all public sector areas. It is often not the availability of lower cost, lower carbon solutions; it is their ability to procure them flexibly within or outside the frameworks that exist.”
-Steve Willock
