Program offers refurbishment, rental, buy-back and recycling of select Zebra devices!
Zebra Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: ZBRA), an innovator at the edge of the enterprise with solutions and partners that enable businesses to gain a performance edge, today introduced the Circular Economy Program.
The program promotes sustainability through the buy-back of select Zebra-branded mobile computing devices, sale or rental of Zebra-certified refurbished devices, and recycling services for devices no longer in use.
The Circular Economy Program reduces the environmental impact of standard product lifecycles in the supply chains of both Zebra and its customers. It is comprised of the Zebra Device Buy-Back Program, Zebra Certified Refurbished Device Sales and Rental Programs, and Zebra Recycling Services.

Zebra Device-Buy-Back-Programm
Device-Buy-Back-Programm offers customers an opportunity to responsibly dispose of older devices while potentially offsetting the cost of new technology purchases.
Zebra Certified Refurbished Device Sales and Rental-Programm
Certified Refurbished Device Sales and Rental-Programm enable organizations to bridge technology gaps while maintaining business functionality and productivity. Zebra Certified Refurbished devices undergo a rigorous 24-step refurbishment process where they are fully tested and include batteries and the latest available operating system. A 90-day warranty is included with refurbished sales, plus an option to purchase one or two years of Zebra OneCare™ support services (included with refurbished rental).
These are the only Zebra-authorized programs offering customers an economical, environmentally beneficial option to bridge technology refresh gaps and manage surges in peak capacity caused by seasonal staffing and cyclical business volume.

Zebra will facilitate the recycling of these devices in compliance with all applicable statutory electronic recycling requirements such as, but not limited to the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive to ensure environmentally responsible handling.

Zebra is committed to implementing environmental, social and governance initiatives prioritized based on commitments to stakeholders through its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities. The Circular Economy Program will play a crucial role within these initiatives.
