Our objectives are (i) to offer professionals and individuals an eco-responsible alternative to new laptops, (ii) to develop the use of small form factor desktop computers with low energy consumption and (iii) to promote the use of Open Source technologies.

IT and reasoned consumption

Or how to reconcile IT needs and the preservation of our environment and natural resources.

From disillusionment with the quality and durability of consumer laptops came the idea of ​​offering an economical and ecological alternative. This alternative is to extend the duration of use of professional computer equipment. Professional laptops are indeed powerful, robust, reliable and suitable for all uses, professional or not ; they are designed to facilitate their maintenance (changing a screen, a keyboard, a hard disk, etc.) and spare parts are available. Consumer computers have a shorter lifespan and require regular renewal because their repairability is more uncertain or costly. On the contrary, business laptops can be easily updated and repaired, and are therefore more durable.

Our first objective is therefore to offer an eco-responsible alternative to new laptops.

At the same time, innovations in energy efficiency have enabled the design ofsmall form factor desktops, perfectly suited to handle all day-to-day computing tasks. But these computers are unknown to the general public. It seems relevant to us to also promote this type of equipment, because each action to reduce our impact on the environment is important.

Finally, recent years have seen the development of Open Source technologies at a sustained pace. These software are freely usable, efficient, secure and respectful of the personal data of their users. The promotion of these technologies seems necessary to us in our context of explosion of data exchanges.

Where do our computers come from?

Our refurbished computers are mainly from French and European corporate computer parks. They are collected and refurbished either directly by Trantor Microcomputers via our services to professionals, or by our suppliers selected for their professionalism and who share our quality requirements and our economic and ecological values.
