Sims Recycling Solutions (SRS), a provider of global IT asset disposition (ITAD) services, announces the startup of a new subsidiary, Converge Engineering LLC. Former Engineering and Technical Director of SRS, Rafael Reveles, will lead Converge as President and aims to use his team’s industry experience to service the recycling industry as well as develop data destruction devices to better serve the security and IT asset disposition markets (ITAD).”
Converge is headquartered in Roseville, Calif. and also has engineers located in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Baltimore, enabling Converge to provide fully-integrated solutions nationwide. Services offered include providing seamless engineering support from beginning to end including design, fabrication, installation and maintenance.
“I’m excited to be involved in the evolution of the industry and share all we’ve learned over the years being involved both as the operator and builder,” stated Reveles. “Solutions for destroying and securing data storage hardware need to be portable, scalable, flexible and effective. Converge is currently developing solutions optimized for consolidated data locations to properly destroy platter, solid state drives and solid state memory.”
Besides their core offerings of designing, building and enhancing electronics and metals recycling plants on a large scale, Converge will offer smaller recycling plants to accommodate low volume applications and smaller electronic products. All shredding systems designed by Converge consider safety and environmental performance.
