Our sustainability goals for 2025:

Our Roadmap for Sustainable IT includes clear steps to drive sustainability in four key areas: climate, substances, circularity and supply chain. It provides structure and transparency, allowing IT brands, purchaser organizations and other stakeholders to align with our ambitious goals and collaborate to achieve them.

  • Reducing scope 2 and 3 emissions: supply chain and product life cycle
    To reduce direct (scope 2) and indirect (scope 3) emissions, we ensure that products are designed for long life and incentivize users to keep products longer. We also promote energy efficiency in products and factories and ensure that IT brands help increase the demand for renewable energy.
  • Considering all substances a risk until proven otherwise
    Unless a substance is a safer alternative, it cannot be used in certified products and manufacturing processes. Approved substances are added to TCO Certified Accepted Substance List. This list is public and open to anyone and can be used to drive the use of safer substances across all industries.
  • Enabling long-lasting products and circular flows
    Promotes a circular IT industry by ensuring that products, components, and materials have a longer lifespan, appeal to secondary markets, and can be integrated into circular material flows.
  • Structured work, follow-up and accountability that drive long-term changes
    We work systematically to address issues in factories and specific hotspots to reduce environmental risk and ensure safer conditions for workers in the IT product supply chains.
