With R2 certification, AirWay customers can have confidence that used and end-of-life electronic equipment consigned to or purchased from the Company is appropriately managed in a manner that is environmentally responsible, protective of the health and safety of workers and the public, and data-secure for all data stored on media devices.  Recognized by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as an accredited certification standard, R2:2013 requires strict accountability for environmental, health and safety practices.  Certification also requires tracking and downstream accountability and prohibits e-waste from being mishandled or illegally exported.  Facility security, mandatory employee background checks, and the highest industry standards for data destruction and sanitization of data sensitive devices are also included.
