Product Life Extension
Easy to Disassemble and Repair
The recycling and reuse are considered during the design phase in order to improve the efficiency of resource usage and to facilitate circular economy. Through the easy disassembly for recycling, the consumer can update spare parts to accommodate with the usage when the product needs to upgrade for improving the computing performance, thus there is no need to replace the entire product. When the product failure occurs, it can be repaired and replaced with new components easily, extending the life of the product. When the product has to be eliminated, it can be classified by the recycling industry and thus reducing the processing costs for recycling and increasing the recycling value of waste electronic products.

Device as a Service
The market research think tank Euromonitor International recently published the "Top 10 Global Consumer Trends" report, which states that products or services for the circular economy such as shared use or lease in lieu of ownership are attractive to consumers. They can also be used to ensure good use of resources and expand new business opportunities for sustainability.
The Device as a Service (DaaS) by ASUS uses a flexible payment scheme to help corporate customers reduce expenditures on hardware, cost of deployment, and cost of technical support and services. It offers comprehensive lease options for the use of IT hardware and services.
