Refurbishment and remarketing form the final phase of the demo lifecycle. The demo lifecycle describes the complete lifecycle of a manufacturer's demonstration, test and demo devices: from building the demo pool and recurring deployments at customer sites, trade shows and roadshows through to remarketing at the end of their service life.
The end of this cycle determines how much value a device brings back. This is exactly where we come in: we technically recondition your devices (refurbishment) and bring them into a structured secondary market via the CDS Weblounge (remarketing). This closes the loop, turning deployed demo devices into realised value instead of tied-up capital.
Refurbishment is the professional reconditioning of used IT and high-tech devices so that they are technically and visually ready for sale again. As an ISO 9001:2015 certified service provider, we take every device through a documented refurbishment process, the basis for its later resale value.
Complete functional and visual test of every device according to defined criteria.
Professional reconditioning, including repair and replacement of components where necessary.
Secure, verifiable erasure of all data before remarketing.
Five labels, from PRIMUS to OUTLET, classify each device by condition and service life.
Demo equipment remarketing is the professional resale of test, demonstration and demo devices after their deployment. As a specialised partner for manufacturers, CDS handles this process end to end: from collection and refurbishment through to brand-exclusive sales, including IT remarketing and IT asset disposition (ITAD) at scale.
The key point: a demo device's resale value is created during its deployment. Because we look after your devices throughout the entire demo process and then refurbish them professionally, their resale value is preserved instead of declining over time. Via the CDS Weblounge, we unlock this value for you, with complete, serial-number-based traceability from the first demo deployment to the sale.
The CDS Weblounge is our B2B sales platform for brand-exclusive remarketing. Whether from your demo pool, a refurbished programme or excess stock: we remarket your devices through single-brand shops.

Demo equipment remarketing is the structured resale of test, demonstration and demo devices after their deployment. The process covers collection, technical reconditioning (refurbishment) and brand-exclusive sales.
Refurbishment is the professional technical and visual reconditioning of used devices so that they are ready for sale again. It includes inspection, cleaning, repair, data erasure and quality grading.
Refurbishment and remarketing form the final phase of the demo lifecycle. After their last deployment, devices are reconditioned and brought into a structured secondary market, so their residual value is realised instead of remaining tied up as capital.
After the demo deployment, the devices are collected, inspected, reconditioned and remarketed instead of losing value or tying up capital unused.
With remarketing, functional devices are reconditioned and resold, preserving their value. Recycling only recovers the raw materials. Remarketing is therefore the more resource-efficient and economically sensible option.
The CDS Weblounge is a closed B2B platform through which refurbished and ex-demo devices are sold to selected business customers in brand-exclusive shops.
