About the Circular Drive Initiative

The Circular Drive Initiative is a collaborative effort among industry leaders to create a more sustainable future for data storage. The CDI focuses on extending the life of storage devices through reuse, refurbishment, and recycling, thereby significantly reducing e-waste and environmental impact.

Sustainability through secure disk reuse

Our Commitment to Sustainability

By joining CDI, we are supporting a circular economy for data storage. Redkey helps authorised users sanitize compatible storage devices before reuse, refurbishment or recycling.

How disk reuse supports the circular economy

How It Works

Redkey supports whole-disk sanitization methods used in international guidance. The available method and result depend on the disk, computer and selected process. A successful erasure helps prepare supported storage devices for safe reuse.
