Eaton has launched a UPS Trade-In campaign that allows businesses to safely dispose of old tech when upgrading to a new unit.
Along with offering rebates and discounts for those wanting to upgrade, Eaton is also handling the battery recycling of old units.With the realities of loadshedding all too familiar for local businesses, some may be looking to upgrade their current UPS solutions to cope with the impact of outages in the coming years.
“As we support users in renewing their power storage and backup systems to be more sustainable in their operations, with the aim to significantly alleviate the impact of waste on the environment,” she added in a release shared with Hypertext. “First and foremost, batteries contain toxic chemicals that can harm human life if not disposed of correctly. When thrown in landfills, these chemicals can leach into the soil and contaminate the water supply. By recycling UPS batteries, we can ensure that these toxic chemicals are disposed of properly, preventing them from causing harm,” the company highlighted.
