Paladin EnviroTech announced the acquisition of ICT as part of a $70 million (€60 million) expansion strategy to scale secure IT asset disposition services globally. The deal strengthens Paladin’s end-to-end ITAD and on-site data destruction capabilities, particularly across Ireland and broader Europe.
The acquisition adds ICT’s established operations and certifications to Paladin’s platform, including its R2v3-certified processes, which emphasize data security, environmental protection, and accountability across the IT lifecycle. ICT processed more than 2,000 tons of end-of-life electronics and securely destroyed over 500,000 data-bearing devices in the past year.
As part of the transaction, ICT is expected to transition to the Paladin brand and relocate to a newly leased 52,000-square-foot processing facility in Dublin. The move is designed to enhance Paladin’s in-region capabilities, particularly in a market widely viewed as a major European data center hub.
ICT offers a full suite of services, including on-site mobile data destruction via specialized shredding vehicles, IT asset remarketing, electronics recycling, secure logistics, and ESG-aligned reporting. The company’s in-house processing model reduces reliance on third parties, improving both security and operational control.
The acquisition is one of several completed by Paladin over the past nine months, as the company builds an international platform focused on secure technology lifecycle management and critical materials recovery. Financial terms of the ICT deal were not disclosed.
KEY QUOTES:
“ICT is a strong legacy organization in the ITAD space, built on doing the work in-house, maintaining chain-of-custody control, and meeting the highest standards for secure data destruction. This acquisition strengthens our ability to support customers in Dublin, widely considered the EU’s ‘data center capital’, and across Ireland, with consistent execution and certified outcomes, while expanding our on-site shredding and secure handling capabilities in-region.”
Brian Diesselhorst, CEO of Paladin EnviroTech
“ICT has always been focused on trust, control, and doing ITAD the right way. At a time when data risk and material loss are only increasing, a security-first mindset is foundational. Paladin shares that same operational discipline and commitment to full chain-of-custody. Together, we’re building a model where organizations don’t have to choose between security, compliance, and sustainability, we can deliver all three, at scale, across Ireland, the UK and Europe.”
Eva Warren, CEO of ICT
