Pharmaceutical leader to embark on its first technology Asset Upcycling in Canada, followed by planned expansion in Japan, the U.S. and other countries

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE) today announced that HPE Asset Upcycling Services have been selected by Astellas Pharma Inc. a global pharmaceutical company. Starting in Canada, these services provide the collection and processing of end-of-use network equipment as part of the company’s network standardization project and will contribute to Astellas’ efforts to achieve its sustainability goals.

A first collection of networking assets is taking place in Canada today, with other Astellas sites to follow, starting with the Japanese headquarters where hundreds of technology assets, including networking, servers, PCs, and smartphones will be decommissioned for secure refurbishment. Each year, Astellas teams will be receiving their own HPE Circular Economy report, which details the reuse versus recycle rate by product family and the associated environmental impact savings.

HPE Asset Upcycling Services is part of HPE’s full range of solutions to help customers modernize multi-generational IT estates, extend the life of legacy systems and associated software, and extract value from end-of-use technology. Astellas selected HPE Asset Upcycling Services for its consistent global quality of service in securely processing and refurbishing end-of-use hardware, including network assets, storage, servers, and workplace devices across multiple brands.

"While IT modernization is crucial in realizing the best experience for our colleagues at Astellas, we want to achieve a positive impact on the environment by promoting the reuse and recycling of IT assets," said Yasunori Yakabe, Director, Head of Cloud Products and Platforms Digital Architecture Solutions, Digital Analytics and Technology, Astellas. “We selected HPE Asset Upcycling Services for it to play an integral role in our corporate social responsibility efforts and contribute to the circular economy. We expect HPE’s solutions to not only strengthen our network and IT infrastructure but also accelerate our journey to carbon neutrality.”

Astellas also selected HPE Aruba Networking solutions to strengthen its backbone network. A secure, agile, and dynamic network is critical to support the research, discovery, development, and manufacturing of innovative new medicines. Astellas, with operations, R&D centers, and manufacturing sites in more than 70 countries worldwide, requires a scalable, resilient, and reliable infrastructure that eliminates network silos and can be managed centrally. HPE Aruba Networking Central, a cloud-based networking solution, will deliver AI-powered analytics, end-to-end automation and orchestration, and advanced security for unified management and enhanced IT productivity.

“We are honored to have been selected by Astellas for HPE Aruba Networking solutions and HPE Asset Upcycling Services,” said Hirokazu Mochizuki, senior vice president and managing director for HPE Japan. “HPE Aruba Networking Central helps overcome the challenges of legacy networking and delivers a compelling user experience.
