R2v3 Certified

A Better Way Computer Recycling is proud to be one of the first ITAD providers in Maryland to achieve R2v3 Certification.  R2v3 Certification is a way for our customers to know we adhere to the industries highest standards for the safe, secure IT asset disposition.

The R2v3 certification is a standard that shows a company has demonstrated their commitment to responsible recycling and management of electronic waste. It is a voluntary certification, and companies that have earned it have demonstrated that they follow strict guidelines for the handling, processing, and disposal of electronic waste. This can help ensure that electronic waste is properly recycled and doesn't end up in landfills, where it can have negative environmental impacts. By choosing to do business with companies that are R2v3 certified, individuals and organizations can help support responsible recycling and reduce their own impact on the environment.

RIOS:2016 Certified (Recycling Industry Operating Standard)

​The Recycling Industry Operating Standard™ (RIOS™) is created specifically for the recycling industry. It integrates generally accepted practices of management systems focused on Quality, Environmental, and Health & Safety management (QEH&S). This allows for more straightforward language and requirements specific to recycling.

The RIOS management system includes plans to assure product quality of recyclable materials and reusable equipment, environmental protection from recycling activities, and health and safety to protect workers and the community. Predicated on an approach of risk-based management, the RIOS management system is intended to proactively manage these elements. The approach is focused on planning for risks, implementing controls, and monitoring and measuring performance to achieve managed levels of acceptable risk and continuous improvement.
​
Certification is expected to produce a recycler with proactive management of environmental and health and safety risks. The Recycler is also expected to create products and services that consistently meet product specifications and customer requirements. As a result, RIOS-certified recyclers should produce quality products and services with minimal impact to the environment and minimal risk to health and safety.
