Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What is certified product destruction?
   Certified product destruction is the secure process of permanently destroying unsellable, expired, or defective goods to prevent them from entering the marketplace. At EOL Stewards, we provide documented proof in the form of a Certificate of Destruction, which includes details of the items destroyed, the method used, and the sustainability benefits achieved (e.g., landfill diversion, greenhouse gas savings).

2. Why is certified product destruction important for brands?
   It protects your brand reputation, ensures regulatory compliance, and prevents unauthorized resale. Many companies also use our Certificates of Destruction in their sustainability and ESG reporting to show accountability and environmental impact reduction.

3. Do you provide proof of destruction?
   Yes. Every project includes a Certificate of Destruction with client name, product details, destruction method, and sustainability metrics. This gives you official documentation for audits, compliance, and internal reporting.

4. Do you provide sustainability reporting along with destruction?
   Yes. Our reports detail landfill diversion tonnage, estimated greenhouse gas reductions, and in some cases water and energy savings. This data is valuable for your ESG and sustainability disclosures.

5. How do you ensure products don’t reach secondary markets?
   We use secure logistics and destruction methods that render products completely unusable. We also work with trusted, certified partners to ensure full chain-of-custody accountability.
