We offer you refurbished spare parts or new goods in accordance with your individual needs as complete systems, upgrades or single parts. We also provide maintenance for server, storage and network components, or for entire systems, as well as the installation of new software.

Because professionally refurbished used hardware offers the highest quality and full functionality at considerably reduced costs compared to new goods.
Your hardware purchase benefits:
Sustainability is written large with Third-Party Maintenance
Using refurbished hardware means suitable components, and thus valuable raw materials, are put back into circulation and reused. In the process hard disks, RAM memory, CPUs, controllers etc. are checked and professionally prepared for further use. Protecting both the environment and your budget.
With refurbished hardware you can also counter shortages such as the current lack of semi-conductors You’ll be on the safe side with our refurbished and in-stock hardware. You receive the hardware with all the manufacturer’s quality criteria and benefit from lower costs. In order to keep your IT equipment available for a long time, we recommend a combination of refurbished hardware and professional hardware maintenance. A TPM maintenance agreement will secure your systems against interruptions and malfunctions in full – transparently and without any hidden costs. Your benefits here: During the maintenance agreement components will be replaced free of charge so your systems will be available without interruptions at all times.
Renting hardware: Short terms with subsequent purchase option
Another concept established in the electronics sector is loaning or renting hardware. Hardware rental is primarily a sensible alternative if the usage time will not be so long or if additional capacities have to be created for peak times. In this way you can cut costs, because purchasing hardware is also frequently associated with considerable expenses. We take care of installation and will also be there quickly in the event of any malfunctions, thus ensuring faults are fixed quickly, reliably and without any complications.
Your hardware rental benefits:
Hardware repurchase and collection
There can be many reasons why hardware is sold. The hardware is obsolete and no longer meets the company’s requirements, new developments demand a technical change or the hardware is simply no longer needed and is taking up valuable space in the data centre.
With our brokerage service you have the opportunity to resell or recycle this hardware securely, in an environmentally-friendly way and without any complications. You’ll be paid the remaining value of the hardware but won’t have to do anything in the process yourself. Data protection has top priority for us, so you can rest assured that your data will be irrevocably and securely erased from your hardware.
