Wisetek, a global leader in advanced IT asset disposal, data destruction, technology reuse and manufacturing services, today announced a new, multi-year strategic alliance with Enviroserve – naming the Dubai based recycling company as its exclusive service partner for the Middle East Region.

This joint partnership operation is located at the new 280,000-square-foot electronic waste processing plant, The Recycling Hub, located in Dubai Industrial City. The Recycling Hub is the world's largest integrated electronic and specialized waste recycling facility and is in its final stages of commissioning.

Wisetek's expansion into Dubai, which will be the company's primary hub for the Middle East and Africa region, is a new milestone in development of its international footprint.

Through this exclusive partnership we are able to offer value recovery, secure data destruction and responsible recycling services of retired IT equipment across the entire region."
