ATR Expands ‘Renewed in America’ Electronics Offering on Amazon: A Call to Action for Sustainable Living and Local Job Creation

PENSACOLA, Fla., Sept. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Advanced Technology Recycling (ATR), a national leader in sustainable electronics recycling and IT asset management, is proud to announce the expansion of our “Renewed in America” ​​product line to the Amazon Marketplace. This new collection of high-quality refurbished electronics offers consumers an environmentally friendly alternative to purchasing new, all while supporting local job creation and reducing environmental impact.

Why buying a refurbished product is better than buying new

“Buying refurbished electronics isn’t just a smart choice for your wallet – it’s a responsible choice for the planet. By choosing refurbished over new, consumers directly contribute to a circular economy where valuable materials are reused rather than thrown away. This prevents thousands of tons of e-waste from ending up in landfills and helps reduce energy consumption and the extraction of raw materials necessary to produce new electronics.

Refurbished electronics, like those offered by ATR, are rigorously tested to meet R2v3 standards, the most stringent certification in the electronics refurbishment industry. Each product is carefully assessed, repaired, tested and warranted in the USA to ensure superior performance and durability, offering the same reliability as new products at a fraction of the price,” said Carrie Brockett – Amazon e-commerce manager

Creating local jobs through product refurbishment

In addition to its environmental benefits, ATR’s Renewed in America program is also driving job creation across the United States. Our refurbishment processes are conducted entirely in the United States, creating skilled jobs in refurbishment, quality testing, logistics and distribution. By purchasing a refurbished product, consumers support American workers and contribute to the growth of local economies.

These jobs are a key part of a more sustainable future by helping to divert electronic equipment from landfill and giving these devices a second life. From engineers who test and repair equipment to logistics teams who manage rapid deliveries across the country, every refurbished product purchased helps keep workers in high-skilled jobs, contributing to sustainability efforts.

Environmental impact and U.S. sustainability efforts

The environmental benefits of choosing refurbished products go far beyond reducing waste. By purchasing ATR “Renewed in America” ​​products, consumers also help reduce the carbon emissions associated with the production and shipment of new electronics. The extraction of raw materials such as rare earth metals and the production of new devices are energy-intensive processes that contribute to global warming. Electronics refurbishment minimizes this impact by saving resources and energy.

By purchasing from ATR, consumers are not only making a responsible environmental choice, but are also actively participating in the movement that supports sustainability initiatives and helps companies across the United States achieve their environmental goals.
