In today's accelerating technological world, we are producing electronic
products at an ever increasing rate. On the other hand, we are also producing
a faster-growing environmental hazard, caused by electronic waste. Electronic
waste(or e-waste) is a serious problem we face today, and if left unattended,
the problem will certainly grow exponentially.
There are different steps individuals can take to lighten this load.
One option is to REDUCE, as in reduce consumption. In some cases, individuals
can decide what products they will choose to use, and products that they
can live without. But often times than not, technology is appealing and
the choice to limit usage is impractical.
Another option is to RECYCLE, We can take electronic products to recycling
centers to properly dismantle, dispose some parts in new products. However,
this practice can be costly and time consuming. Recycling centers will
often times charge individuals a fee to recycle the products they bring
in.
A more logical and efficient practice may be to REUSE. Surveys show that
a high percentage of electronic products can be reused by other individuals
and companies. Reuse of these products is economical and also the best
method to decrease e-waste.
Star Technology is a company that provides for the need of this reduction
of e-waste. Our business is to purchase used test equipments and resale
them to other individuals or business that can make good use of these same
equipments.
Star Technology will obtain equipment data specification and provide this
data t our customers so that they can purchase equipments that will fit
their task precisely.
If we apply used test equipments, that are still very capable for today's
tasks into current business, we can see a significant reduction in electronic
waste. And that is beneficial for everyone.
