Revalo at the heart of today's challenges
The world’s fastest-growing waste is sitting in your offices.
Electronic equipment is replaced fast and rarely recycled. Reuse is the most direct way to reduce its impact.

The challenges we take on.
Too little supply in France
Refurbishment in France lacks stock: demand is strong, local supply too weak. Refurbishers often have to source from North America or Asia. Revalo unlocks the equipment held by French companies to secure supply, raise volumes and bring refurbished devices to everyone.
Solutions out of reach for SMEs
Today’s collection services are expensive: billed per unit or per kilo, with little transparency. The result is slow adoption, especially among SMEs. At Revalo, the take-back is funded by the residual value of the equipment: a win-win model that fits companies’ constraints.
Responsible digital as a CSR lever
REEN, AGEC, CSRD: companies face new obligations, from CO2 reporting to non-financial disclosure. Collecting and refurbishing devices is a major, still under-used CSR lever, with substantial carbon savings.
Refurbishing more
Refurbished devices will grow strongly in Europe over the next 10 years. Yet SMEs, which employ 10 million people in France, are left out for lack of a suitable solution. Revalo gives them a simple, reliable and effective offer.
Reuse is no longer optional. It is an obligation.
Large companies must disclose their emissions, including those linked to their equipment (ESRS E1).
France’s anti-waste law requires public buyers to source a share of their equipment from reuse.
All data must be provably erased before a device leaves the company.

How we commit.
Concrete actions for a responsible digital transformation.
Device traceability
We know where your devices go and how they are transported, so we can measure the carbon footprint down to the last mile.
Backed by Perqo
Revalo was incubated by Perqo, the impact incubator of the Île-de-France region, which supports projects with a social and environmental purpose.
95% local flows
95% of devices are collected and processed in their country of collection, keeping the logistics footprint to a minimum.
Coq Vert community
Revalo is a member of Bpifrance’s Coq Vert community, committed to the ecological and energy transition.
