All-In-One-PC products come with a number of sustainability challenges throughout their life cycle. TCO Certified is the global sustainability certification for IT products, empowering both IT buyers and brands to make more responsible choices.
Through our affiliate programme, Eco Choice Aotearoa and TCO Development mutually recognise each other’s standards as reflecting international best practices in sustainability. To qualify, IT brands must meet Eco Choice’s local requirements and uphold its values statement, which includes a commitment to the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi.
This product standard aims to:
– Limit hazardous substances in devices;
– Improve energy efficiency;
– Eliminate planned obsolescence by encouraging durability; repairability and upgradeability requirements;
– Ensure climate impact reductions are met;
– Promote recyclability and responsible material sourcing;
– Uphold human rights through supply chain due diligence.
