Transforming E-waste into

Digital Empowerment

Building a sustainable future through device refurbishment,
digital inclusion, and community empowerment.

ReUSE Revamp™: Leading the Charge for Digital Inclusion

ReUSE Revamp™ is a pioneering social enterprise founded in 2023, dedicated to transforming e-waste into affordable digital access across Mauritius and Rodrigues. We bridge the digital and AI divides by providing high-impact tools—primarily laptops and computers—to eligible students, job seekers, and nonprofit organizations.

Our Impact & Leadership

We don’t just participate in the global social innovation ecosystem; we lead it. ReUSE Revamp™ is proud to be the lead organization for the Catalyst 2030 Mauritian Chapter, collaborating with partners like the Hadeev Movement to accelerate sustainable development goals through local action.


How We Work: The 7 R’s of Sustainable Tech

We collect used and damaged equipment and put it through a rigorous lifecycle of restoration:

  • Repair & Refurbish: Every device is upgraded and tested to ensure peak performance.

  • ReUSE & Redistribute: Making technology accessible at a fraction of the cost.

  • Repurpose, Recycle, & Revamp: Ensuring no component goes to waste.

Why Laptops?

We focus on laptops because they are the ultimate catalysts for change. A single refurbished laptop can unlock:

  • Education: Access to online courses and AI-driven learning tools.

  • Employability: The ability to search for jobs and develop professional skills.

  • Innovation: Bridging the gap for communities to participate in the digital economy.

Our Vision & Standards

  • Data Protection: We uphold the highest standards of security, replacing disks and wiping data professionally.

  • Education: As the official coordinator of STEM Racing™ Mauritius, we inspire the next generation through science and technology.

  • Alignment: Our work is a direct contribution to the Ministry of Technology and Communication’s Digital Blueprint (Pillar 4), fostering a resilient and inclusive future.

What We Do

Our Programs & Services

Device Collection & Refurbishment

We collect used and damaged laptops, printers, and other devices. Each item is repaired or upgraded, disks are securely replaced when needed, and every device undergoes rigorous testing before redistribution. Our approach follows the 7 R’s of sustainable tech: Repair, Refurbish, ReUSE, Redistribute, Repurpose,  Recycle, and Revamp.

Repair Workshops

We run hands-on repair workshops where participants learn electronics maintenance, build practical repair skills, and discover pathways to tech careers—all while helping reduce e-waste at an affordable cost. We also partner with technical institutions such as Polytechnics Mauritius to strengthen learning and industry relevance.

STEM Education Programs

Our STEM programs—including STEM Racing™ supported by Formula 1—inspire future tech leaders through coding, AI music, robotics, and electronics.
