The Green Advantage: Sustainable ITAD Practices for Data Centers
Data Center Program Leader, Josh Humm, shares how sustainability has become a powerful advantage in modern ITAD — helping data centers achieve measurable ESG progress while improving efficiency and reputation.
Not long ago, sustainability was seen as an extra — something discussed in annual reports or stakeholder meetings. Today, it’s a defining business priority.
For data centers, that shift means sustainability isn’t just about doing the right thing; it’s about driving smarter operations, stronger compliance, and a more resilient brand. And with Dynamic’s *Easy Button* approach, sustainable ITAD isn’t a separate process — it’s built into every phase.
Responsible disposition isn’t just good for the planet — it’s good for business.
True sustainability starts with accountability. Every asset that enters our system is evaluated, tracked, and handled to maximize reuse and minimize waste. Here’s how that plays out in practice:
• Certified recycling and remarketing.
• Reuse first, recycle second.
• Minimal landfill contribution.
• ESG-ready reporting.
• Audited downstream vendors.
• Client-specific (bespoke) reporting: Every organization measures ESG progress differently, so our reporting packages are customized to your stakeholders’ needs — rolling up diversion, materials recovery, and carbon avoidance in ways that matter most to you.
Sustainability has moved beyond compliance. It now shapes investor decisions, customer trust, and operational efficiency. Organizations that prioritize responsible disposition are seeing benefits like:
• Improved ESG performance metrics.
• Operational gains through smarter reuse and value recovery.
• Brand credibility built on measurable action and transparency.
Integrating sustainability into ITAD doesn’t have to mean more complexity. When it’s built into every phase — from de-racking to reporting — it becomes part of how you operate, not an extra task to manage.
Our Easy Button approach makes ESG progress measurable, manageable, and meaningful. Every project contributes directly to your sustainability story — and every report provides tangible proof of progress. Together, we’ll help you share those results with your teams, your stakeholders, and the broader community — clear evidence of a sustainability strategy that truly work
