Every device deserves a second chance
From 22 to 30 November 2025, the European Week for Waste Reduction takes place — a Europe-wide initiative that highlights the need to reduce waste, handle materials responsibly and support the circular economy.
This year’s theme focuses on electrical and electronic devices and waste and this is exactly where Techsavers holds its strong position.
Electronic waste is growing faster than any other waste stream in the world. In 2022, up to 62 billion kilograms of e-waste was generated, yet only 22.3% was correctly recycled.
Every laptop that ends up in a drawer or landfill unnecessarily burdens the planet and wastes resources that could be reused.
Back into circulation, not into the bin: How refurbished technology helps
Refurbished laptops and computers are one of the most effective ways to reduce electronic waste.
Every device that gets a second life means less CO₂, less water consumed, less waste while still delivering reliable performance.
Thanks to our customers, refurbishment has already helped us:
-
prevent the release of almost 55,000 tons of CO₂ into the atmosphere,
-
avoid the extraction of more than 280,000 tons of valuable raw materials,
-
save nearly 50 billion liters of water,
-
and reduce the creation of e-waste by more than 1 million kilograms.
All of this comes without compromising quality. Every device we offer is fully functional, tested, includes a 2-year warranty, and comes with a 30-day return option.

How to choose refurbished technology correctly
When selecting a refurbished laptop or computer, follow the same criteria you would use for a new device, with one key difference: here you’re purchasing performance and quality at a more reasonable price.
-
Focus on your needs, not just the specifications.
If you work with text, spreadsheets or email, a laptop with an Intel i5 and 8 GB RAM is sufficient. For graphics or more demanding tasks, look for an i7 or workstation model. -
Choose the quality grade based on usage.
If you plan to use the laptop daily, choose “Like New” or “Very Good” condition.
If it’s intended for a workshop, warehouse or school, the “Fair” condition offers an excellent price-to-performance ratio. -
Check the warranty and origin.
Every device from Techsavers undergoes an 11-step refurbishment process, includes a 2-year warranty, and is 100% functional with professionally wiped data and tested hardware. -
Consider the environmental impact.
By choosing refurbished technology, you save not only money but also the environment. Every laptop or computer that gets a second chance means dozens of kilograms less waste and tons of raw materials saved.
💡 Tip: If you have an old device at home that you no longer use, take advantage of our Device Buyback service. You’ll receive money or credit for a new purchase — and help the planet.
What you can do
The European Week for Waste Reduction is about concrete actions that make sense.
Each of us can contribute to reducing e-waste by:
-
giving a refurbished device a chance instead of buying a new one,
-
passing on technology we no longer use,
-
recycling electronics responsibly and in the right places.
Together for a sustainable future
Small decisions have a big impact.
If you choose refurbished technology from Techsavers this year, you’ll contribute to a cleaner planet while saving money.
