Logitech International S.A. announced that all video collaboration devices that run on the CollabOS operating system will now be manufactured with next-life plastics, helping enterprise customers support their sustainability objectives. Existing products- Rally Bar, Rally Bar Mini, Tap IP, Tap Scheduler, and Scribe- are being refreshed with materials that lower the carbon impact of each product. This provides organizations with a partner that in turn helps position them to better manage their carbon footprint.

Efforts to reduce negative environmental impact have rapidly become a business imperative. In a recent survey of IT professionals by analyst firm Frost & Sullivan, 65% say that becoming a leader in environmental, social, governance and sustainability practices is a critical or very important business objective in the coming year. Applying Design for Sustainability (DfS) principles to Logitech?s video collaboration portfolio means that Logitech customers can outfit entire conference rooms?

including Microsoft Teams Rooms and Zoom Rooms?with technology designed with sustainability in mind. This development expands on the progress already achieved with personal workstation peripherals such webcams, headsets, mice, and keyboards. Design for Sustainability (DfS) A key tenet of DfS is the use of circular materials that can be recovered from the waste stream and given a second life, including post-consumer recycled plastics (PCR) that Logitech calls next life plastics.

Newer conference room products like Logitech Sight use: Minimum of 50% certified recycled plastic. 21% reduction in carbon footprint. 1,400tCO2e avoided carbon per 100,000 units (enough to drive around the Earth approximately 131 times?) Additionally, Logitech video conferencing products have: · Low carbon aluminum made with renewable energy rather than fossil fuels · Packaging from FSC-certified forests and other controlled sources · 100% recycled fabrics in the Rally Bar family · Option to collect and recycle old video conferencing equipment via Logitech Select Power saving modes that can potentially reduce Rally Bar and Rally Bar Mini?s carbon impact by 1.65 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent Opening Access for Greater Impact Logitech has decreased its Scope 3 emissions by 21% in 2022 with the goal of removing more carbon than it creates by 2030.

To drive carbon reduction at an even bigger scale and stimulate industry-wide progress, Logitech is offering to openly share its DfS principles, tools and its knowledge of how to incorporate more sustainable materials in the manufacturing process with any organizations in the consumer technology industry interested in increasing their sustainability efforts. Transparency and Accountability As more companies hold themselves accountable for measurably reducing their carbon impact, they increasingly seek out technology vendors who provide transparency via key performance indicators, reporting, and third party certifications. Logitech is on track to achieve its 2025 target of having a product carbon footprint for every product in its portfolio, making it easier for company technology buyers to make informed decisions about?and report on?

the scope of their impact when outfitting their global workforces for meeting rooms, personal workstations, and flex desking.
