Logitech is aware of the urgent need to take climate action. We\u2019ve committed to removing more carbon that we create with our climate positive approach. We are addressing our carbon footprint across the entire value chain and have achieved carbon neutrality across our entire product portfolio. We know there is still much more to do, but it\u2019s work that cannot wait.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n At Logitech G, our mission is to bring the joy of play to all. At the same time, we recognize that gaming has an impact on our environment and that we have a responsibility to <\/span>our consumers and across the industry<\/span> to reduce that impact inline with Logitech\u2019s corporate commitments. Below is a summary update on the major things we\u2019re doing.<\/span><\/p>\n Designing for Sustainability<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n To reduce our carbon footprint and help Logitech achieve its goals, we’re working on key improvements to our peripherals and introducing more ways to reduce the environmental impact of our products. Our methods include utilizing renewable materials, reducing material weight and improving hardware and software updates.<\/span><\/p>\n We\u2019ve also revisited the materials we use in our products to focus on the impact they have on our planet.<\/span><\/p>\n Across the board, we\u2019ve significantly reduced the size, weight, and material usage across a range of gaming packaging, with the final package size reduced by up to 71%, depending on the product line. This change has also allowed us to reduce the number of pallets required for every shipment. All of this work has resulted in an estimated impact reduction of over 1,760 tCO2e per year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n By being open and transparent about our impact, we know we can drive better design decisions in our own teams and more informed purchase decisions among consumers. <\/span>Carbon footprinting <\/span><\/a>is one way to measure and quantify a product’s complex impact on the environment. From the weight of plastics to the size of the printed circuit boards, to the recycled content, to the end-of-life recycling, carbon footprinting helps us to quantify environmental impacts and informs our design decisions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Logitech has developed a Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) capability so that we can quantify the carbon footprint of our products across their full life-cycle, from sourcing of raw materials to manufacturing, distribution, consumer use and product end-of-life. Like nutritional labels on food, Carbon Impact Labels allow consumers to make informed and mindful decisions about the environmental impact of their purchase.<\/span><\/p>\n We are the first gaming company that has committed to providing a detailed carbon impact labeling on packaging across our entire portfolio, we call this <\/span>Carbon Clarity. <\/span><\/a>Today we have eight products with this label, and by 2025, our full portfolio, including our gaming products, will have a Carbon Clarity number.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We want to empower players to make impactful and knowledgeable decisions <\/span>that help reduce their carbon footprint. So what can you do? Start by being more informed about the product decisions you make and of course, look for the carbon impact label on our products.<\/span><\/p>\n Our ambitions are high, and we recognize we still have a long way to go, but we\u2019re committed because it is critically important that we get this right for the planet. But the work is never complete. We\u2019re focused on continuing to learn, improve, and grow. You, the gamer, are an important part of this journey. We\u2019ll continue to share updates on how we\u2019re progressing.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
