The Change We Seek®
The production, use, and disposal of IT hardware and building supplies is tremendously damaging to our planet; it chews up natural resources and habitats and is tossed in landfills or the sea. Since 1995, IPSOFACTO has sought partners and manufacturers who care about our environment. We deliver outstanding IT services by partnering with conscientious vendors and manufacturers of IT equipment.
