TD SYNNEX has donated its old furniture with a fair market value of £158,828 – via redistribution specialist charity, the Waste to Wonder Trust – to UK charities and schools in Senegal and Cameroon.
The cycling back of desks, chairs and other items has resulted in 135,205 kilograms of carbon savings. With 100per cent all materials being re-used, all of the furniture or equipment that TD SYNNEX has yet to be recycled will go to landfill.
The donation was made as part TD SYNNEX’s recent re-location of its Basingstoke offices to a more energy-efficient building last month. At the same time, TD SYNNEX took the opportunity to purchase new sustainable office furniture, including new office chairs made from recycled fishing nets.
