Sustainability at Cur8.art
We help institutions preserve cultural heritage — and we believe that responsibility extends to preserving our environment. From low-power sensor design to our hardware recycling programme, sustainability is built into everything we do.
Our Environmental Commitments
Sustainability isn't an afterthought — it's woven into our product design, operations, and partnerships.
Circular Hardware Programme
Our take-back scheme ensures retired sensors, gateways, and monitoring equipment are refurbished for redeployment or responsibly recycled — never sent to landfill.
Low-Power Engineering
Cur8 sensors are designed for ultra-low energy consumption, running for years on minimal power. Less energy used means a smaller carbon footprint across every installation.
WEEE-Compliant Disposal
All end-of-life electronics are processed through certified Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) channels, meeting UK and EU regulatory standards.
Sustainable Packaging
We use recyclable and minimal packaging materials for all hardware shipments, reducing waste from the moment your equipment arrives.
Extended Product Lifespan
Through firmware updates and modular design, we extend the useful life of every device — reducing the frequency of hardware replacement.
Transparency & Reporting
Institutions enrolled in our recycling programme receive annual sustainability reports, helping you meet your own environmental targets and ESG commitments.
Hardware Recycling Programme
When your Cur8 hardware reaches end of life, we make sure it doesn't end up in landfill. Our recycling programme gives retired equipment a responsible second chapter.
Contact Us
Reach out to our team to arrange collection or drop-off of your retired Cur8 hardware — sensors, gateways, controllers, and accessories.
Assessment & Collection
We assess the condition of each device. Where possible, hardware is collected at no cost as part of your service agreement.
Refurbish or Recycle
Functional components are refurbished and redeployed. End-of-life hardware is processed through certified WEEE-compliant recycling partners.
Certificate & Report
You receive a sustainability certificate confirming responsible disposal, along with an environmental impact summary for your records.
Why It Matters
The cultural sector is increasingly focused on environmental responsibility. Our programme helps institutions meet sustainability targets while ensuring monitoring hardware is handled ethically.
