Off-Spec & Outdated Product Destruction Services

Sometimes products are recalled, they expire, they do not meet safety and quality standards, get damaged in transit, or they need to be removed from the market for some other reason. Although many businesses try to upcycle or recycle their off-spec and outdated goods, there are some instances in which the products must be destroyed entirely and rules for proper disposal must be followed. At Clean Management, our Product Destruction Services are secure, confidential, and certified.

Your products will be destroyed in the most environmentally friendly way, which may include but not be limited to:

Incineration

If your product can safely combust, incineration is a secure product destruction method. Your products will get thrown into a state-of-the-art incinerator and burnt to ash.

Shredding

Using heavy-duty shredders, we can rip products made from materials like paper and cardboard into tiny pieces that are impossible to put back together.

Crushing

Using a compactor to crush your products is another option. Crushing turns your products into unusable flat sheets or piles of material. Crushing is one of the best waste management options for hard-to-dispose-of products like aerosol cans; however, filled containers need to be safely punctured first to prevent explosions.

Composting

We also offer composting services. Composting is an excellent way to destroy your products while also helping out the environment. You can compost a wide variety of products and use the resulting fertilizer to nourish the earth.

Direct Landfill

When you opt for this method, your products will be transported to a local landfill and buried in the soil.

Top Reasons to Use Product Destruction Services: 

Brand Protection

Off-spec and outdated products that are not destroyed or upcycled by the manufacturer often end up on the gray market. The gray market is where legitimate products are sold through unofficial distribution channels. The original manufacturer does not gain any of the profits and the consumers who buy the products do not get access to any manufacturer’s offers, such as warranties or customer service.

Because the goods sold on the gray market are usually faulty, outdated, or otherwise substandard, consumers may learn to associate your business’ brand with these low-quality products. Thus, secure product destruction offers one way of protecting your brand.

For some products, there is also the risk of unofficial channels gaining access to the products illegally and selling them. For example, defective products that are sent to a landfill may be taken out illegally and sold.

Regulation Compliance

In the case of hazardous products, it is vital that your destruction process comply with all relevant federal, state, and local disposal regulations. Toxic chemicals and other hazardous substances like pharmaceutical waste each have a special waste management protocol. You can read more on toxic substance regulation from the EPA’s article on the subject.

Liability Limiting

Some off-spec or outdated hazardous and non-hazardous substances may cause harm to someone who accesses it. To limit your business’ liability for negligent behavior, these products may need to be destroyed.
