Microsoft Authorized Refurbishers Program (MAR)

In January 2004, Flection International became a Microsoft Authorized Refurbisher (MAR).

As a MAR, we are licensed to install the professional operating systems Windows XP Pro, Windows XP Office and Windows 2000 on refurbished computers which we supply to eligible recipients in the countries where we operate. The MAR program not only meets the commercial needs of refurbishers, but also promotes digital inclusion by helping under-served communities to gain access to affordable operating software for their refurbished computers.

As an official MAR agent, Flection can provide Windows licenses for refurbished computers destined for educational establishments and charitable organizations in Europe, Middle East and Africa. On average, we supply over 10,000 MAR units annually to educational institutions and non-profit organizations in these regions. Flection is Microsoft largest MAR.

When you donate a computer through the MAR program, you are directly contributing to the ability of less well off communities to gain access to information technology and all the benefits this brings.

You are also ensuring that your obsolete equipment is being refurbished in a professional manner, and that licensed software is being legally installed.
