Key Features of GNFR Service
Speak to the team at Sigma about implementing a GNFR strategy with built-in efficiency, traceability and reuse.
Responsible GNFR Handling with Reuse and Recycling
At Sigma, GNFR assets are assessed for reuse and recycling to reduce waste and extend the lifecycle of non-sale stock. Fixtures and equipment beyond economical repair are brought back to one of our hubs, where they are broken down into component parts for recycling or, where reuse isn’t possible, for responsible disposal. Items suitable for reuse are returned, processed and refurbished in readiness for redeployment, helping to support sustainability goals and minimise costs.
All reused and recycled inventory is managed through our in-house systems, tracked via the Warehouse Management System (WMS), and handled as part of our wider GNFR transport and logistics services.
