How Blancco Helps Mobile Resellers & Recyclers Achieve Compliance with the R2 Standard

Mobile resellers and recyclers must comply with several standards and certifications before reselling, remarketing or recycling their devices. Following these rules helps mobile organizations ensure that they are protected from potential data remanence that could expose sensitive information. One of the most prominent certifications is called R2. The latest version of the Standard is the R2:2013.

Each provision of the R2 Standard is designed to help ensure the transparency, quality, social and environmental responsibility of R2 Certified electronics facilities such as mobile resellers and recyclers. R2:2013 was developed through a transparent multi-stakeholder process, consistent with ANSI essential requirements. R2 undergoes consistent review to advance the requirements in-line with the needs of the industry.
