online

For more than 30 years, TCO Certified has worked with the global IT industry and buyers worldwide to improve sustainability in the tech world. The criteria in TCO Certified are updated every third year to push sustainability where it matters most. Now, it's time for the next steps.

This webinar will discuss the steps needed to drive sustainability in four key areas: climate, substances, circularity and supply chain. TCO is excited to share its Roadmap for Sustainable IT with an external audience for the first time, along with the criteria in the new generation of TCO Certified. Thousands of updates and changes have been made to drive circularity, reduce the climate impact of IT products, improve working conditions for over 100,000 people and replace thousands of harmful substances with safer alternatives. The first verified models that meet all criteria will also be made public.

Thousands of organisations worldwide include TCO Certified in the procurement process to support sustainable IT initiatives and efforts. By joining this digital launch event, you can learn more about our global system for IT sustainability with a proven track record and how you can join the global movement for sustainable IT.
