November 16, 2025

KOcycle are raising the bar for secure IT asset disposal


KOcycle is proud to announce that it has successfully achieved ADISA certification at distinction level, following a rigorous Data Capability Audit against the ICO-approved ADISA Standard 8.0.

ADISA commented:

“ADISA are pleased to announce that KOCycle IT have passed their Data Capability Audit against the ICO approved Standard 8.0 meaning they maintain their certification at DISTINCTION and can provide ITAD services to a DIAL 2.”

What this means for KOcycle clients


For KOcycle clients, this certification provides clear, independent assurance that their IT assets and data are handled to the highest recognised standards. Achieving distinction, the top tier of ADISA certification, confirms that KOcycle’s processes for data sanitisation, asset handling, and reporting go well beyond baseline compliance.

Being approved to deliver DIAL 2 ITAD services means KOcycle is trusted to manage higher-risk data environments, where robust controls, traceability, and verified data destruction are critical. Clients can be confident that sensitive information is protected throughout the entire IT asset lifecycle, reducing the risk of data breaches, regulatory penalties, and reputational damage.

A clear differentiator in the ITAD market


ADISA certification is widely regarded as the gold standard for IT Asset Disposal providers. Maintaining certification at distinction level sets KOcycle apart in a crowded market, demonstrating not just compliance, but operational excellence and continual improvement.

Unlike providers who rely solely on self-assessment or basic accreditations, KOcycle has been independently audited against an ICO-approved framework, giving clients tangible proof of due diligence and best practice.

Commitment to trust, compliance, and sustainability


This achievement reinforces KOcycle’s ongoing commitment to secure, compliant, and responsible ITAD services. Clients partnering with KOcycle benefit from peace of mind, knowing their data is protected, their compliance obligations are supported, and their IT assets are managed by a provider recognised at the very highest level within the industry.

For organisations seeking a trusted ITAD partner, KOcycle’s ADISA distinction certification provides a powerful reason to choose with confidence.
