Intechra, the nation’s largest e-waste recycling company, announced the completion of its acquisition of three companies from Chasm Holding Corp.
The acquisitions give Intechra a presence across the U.S. to recover end-of-life computers and related electronics.
EPC, Los Angeles, Calif.
Market2Market, Columbus, Ohio
SpaceFitters, Hartford, Conn.
These companies complement Intechra’s existing operations in Columbus, Ohio; Dallas, Texas; Casa Grande, Ariz.; and Phoenix, Ariz.
The processing centers in Hartford, Columbus, Dallas, and Phoenix handle remanufacturing and remarketing and can process about 335,000 assets each month, including computers, monitors, laptops, routers, servers, etc. The recycling centers in Casa Grande and Los Angeles and a recycling operation in the Dallas facility can together recycle about nine million pounds of electronic assets per month.
“Combining the capabilities and employees of these companies with Intechra creates a vertically integrated company with a full complement of remarketing, recycling and refurbishment services. We are particularly excited about our added recycling capability because environmental compliance is becoming more important to our clients,” said Chip Slack, Intechra CEO.
Intechra is the only ITAD provider to be vertically integrated and have locations from coast to coast. Geographic proximity reduces shipping costs for clients while increasing speed to market for remarketed assets.
