About Us
tier1 is the UK’s number one IT Lifecycle services organisation - with impact at its core.
Founded in 1995, we have over 25 years of experience in IT. We are the best choice for refurbished Laptops, Desktops & Monitors, from top brands like Lenovo, Dell, HP & Apple. All our devices are refurbished in the UK at our site in Manchester and with trusted UK based partners.
Based in the North West and South East of England we have over 70,000 sq. feet of secure CAS-S and List X MOD approved facilities and have a dedicated team of 125 people with over 1000 years of experience collectively.
Our business model includes recovering IT equipment, refurbishing, re-using and reselling these devices via our valued partners and our own dedicated online store. Items that cannot be re-used are recycled in our workshop at HMP Hindley, where we offer training and qualifications to inmates as part of our 'Through the Gate' programme.
Our ethos of ‘Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.’ remains central to all that we do. We work tirelessly to ensure there is minimum impact on the environment and that zero devices end up in landfill.
