Understanding EPEAT

EPEAT, or the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool, is an international certification system that evaluates the environmental performance of electronic products. It assesses the entire lifecycle—from manufacturing through usage to disposal—as well as the environmental impact and sustainability of the supply chain.

In the United States, EPEAT is especially crucial as a standard for public procurement. Furthermore, it serves as a significant sustainability indicator that demonstrates corporate reliability in consumer markets. With a major revision of the standards scheduled for July 2026, adherence to EPEAT will become increasingly essential for enhancing corporate credibility in response to growing demands for environmental responsibility.
