REVIVO – Sustainable IT without compromise
Sustainability and CO₂ reduction has become a central theme for companies, and it has become a shared social responsibility with great importance. Elitecom has worked with sustainability and various sustainable IT solutions for many years, and on this basis, we have now developed our own concept for sustainable IT, which has been given the name:
”Revivo” comes from Latin and translates to “rebirth” or “to bring something back to life” and it matches exactly what we want to offer with REVIVO – to bring technology back to life and thus reduce CO₂, waste, resource waste and support a sustainable future.
REVIVO is designed to help companies reduce their CO₂ footprint and electronic waste – and unlike many other sustainability initiatives, it requires no investment or increased costs.

How it works in practice for a business
Benefits for the company and for employees
Sustainability in practice – reducing carbon footprint, preventing e-waste and conserving resources.
Maximizing investments – The business gets more value out of existing IT equipment.
Internal resource optimization – Better IT budget management as devices can be moved between departments as needed.
Cost reduction – Instead of buying new for each department, existing devices are reused at a significantly lower cost.
Familiar solution for IT – The IT department will gain efficient and stable support, as these are familiar models and still have devices that are fully warranted, fully updated and thoroughly checked for errors.
Better equipped – employees will get a sustainable PC that looks and works like new – often better equipped than if they were to get a new one, and they’ll help support the company’s green agenda.

Why we have chosen Sustainable IT
as our greatest ambition and driving force
We chose Sustainable IT because we believe the future of technology is about responsibility and innovation.
At Elitecom, we have always believed that technology can be a force for change and development. But as a long-standing provider of IT solutions, we also recognize the huge carbon footprint and resource consumption that the production of new IT equipment creates.
So as sustainability has become a central theme for businesses and society, we saw both a responsibility and an opportunity: to create an IT solution that not only reduces carbon footprint and resource waste, but also makes sustainability accessible without compromising on quality, economy or performance.
From experience to innovation – why did we create REVIVO?
At Elitecom we have been working with sustainability and sustainable IT solutions for many years, and we have been in dialogue with an extensive number of stakeholders.
Our experience showed us that many existing solutions in refurbished IT and other sustainable IT solutions were not sufficient to meet all the demands of public authorities/agencies/institutions and private companies.
We realised that there were points of attention and concerns, including:
- CSR-issues around manufacturing.
- Quality variations that undermined the user experience.
- Unclear or inaccurate CO₂ calculations that undermined credibility.
That’s why we decided to develop our own concept – REVIVO – based on four core values:
- Responsibility: Manufacturing in Europe ensures both shorter supply chains and fulfilment of international environmental and social standards and requirements.
- Quality: Each unit is reconditioned according to BS8887 so quality, performance, consistency and warranty match equivalent new products.
- Documentation: Transparency and precision in CO₂ calculations and ESG impacts that make it easy for companies to achieve and document their results.
- Economy: Our solution should help organisations reduce their carbon footprint and support their ESG strategy without requiring investment or increased costs.
