Learn how R2 and ISO certifications can help accelerate your growth in Booth 19

Scaling an electronic recycling business can be challenging. Technologies, regulations, and consumer demand are continuously evolving, making new—and steady—business opportunities seem elusive.

Whether you’re just getting your cell phone device refurbishing startup off the ground or are an established device reseller, you can learn how to effectively navigate those challenges at the fifth annual Gadget Repair Expo in Miami Beach. The expo, hosted at the Miami Convention Center on May 7 and 8, will allow attendees to network with industry leaders and learn how to grow their businesses and increase profitability.

What to Expect at the Expo

Over 65 exhibitors and numerous speakers will be in attendance. Over the two days, attendees can network and learn about industry best practices through training, demos and presentations. Topics range from data recovery, repair and refurbishing techniques to business strategies organizations can employ to differentiate their business and build brand loyalty.

Glacier Consulting will be among the exhibitors. Our representatives will be available to educate attendees about how ISO and R2 certifications can help them win new business, scale with ease, and gain a competitive advantage over peers.

ISO & R2 Certifications: The Basics

ISO is an independent, global organization that sets standards that define what high quality looks like across industries – from manufacturing to cybersecurity. ISO certifications prove an organization’s commitment to quality and consistency. Popular ISO certifications include:

  • ISO 9001: quality management systems
  • ISO 27001: information security, cybersecurity and privacy protection management systems
  • ISO 14001: environmental management systems
  • ISO 45001: occupational health and safety management systems

R2 is a globally recognized standard for responsible electronics recycling practices. Like ISO certifications, an R2 certification requires transparency and demonstrates your commitment to adhering to best practices that, in this case, safeguard the environment and public health.

How ISO & R2 Certifications Can Accelerate Your Growth

Not every company needs certification, but an ISO or R2 certification can help your organization win new business and increase revenue.

To secure an ISO or R2 certification, you must first implement and maintain a robust quality management system. This system can teach your organization to work more efficiently and productively, resulting in higher-quality products and services.  

When you achieve an ISO or R2 certification, it verifies, to current and potential buyers or customers, that your services and products are high quality. This third-party validation can increase both consumer confidence and repeat sales. It can also help you secure business from organizations that exclusively work with certified companies.
