Toronto-based CSI Electronics Processing Centre (CSI EPC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSI Leasing Canada and IT asset disposition (ITAD) provider, is moving its Calgary operations to a larger facility to accommodate increasing business volume.
At 16,145 square feet, the new facility increases the company’s footprint in the region by more than 65% and is expected to handle up to a 35% increase in equipment processing. Assets processed include information technology, warehousing assets and select ground service equipment, among others. The facility will also include new additions to shredding equipment, which will reduce hard drive destruction times by 50%. As a Microsoft Authorized Refurbisher and Blancco Premium ITAD Partner, the company will continue to offer mobile as well as remote data security services, remarketing services, managed logistics and electronics recycling for a wide range of technology.
The facility, which is adjacent to Calgary International Airport, will continue to be managed by Jason Donaher, who has been with the company for 21 years. The company currently has nine full-time ITAD employees, with the intent to increase headcount alongside business growth. Parent company CSI Canada will also move its Calgary office to the facility.
“The demand for proper technology disposal has increased dramatically in Canada,” Mike Kubala, president of CSI EPC, said. “That, combined with the increase in lease returns from CSI’s customers, was the big driver behind our move. I’m excited for this opportunity to grow our operations and to bring our sustainable, secure solutions to more organizations in Western Canada.”
CSI EPC will take possession of the property on June 1, with the anticipation to be fully operational by Sept. 1.
