HP takes a pro-active approach to minimising its impact on the environment. HP has voluntarily ensured its entire manufacturing operations fulfill the ISO 14001 standard and is currently in the process of developing innovative processes for the return of end-of-life computer equipment from consumers in Australia.
HP is committed to reducing the environmental impact of its products, starting from the design stage and continuing throughout the product's life cycle.+
HP believes that an effective environmental strategy incorporates more than one element of the product life cycle- whether design, reuse or recycling. All these elements complement each other and as such can help to ensure a sustainable outcome.
HP recycling rate increased 16% in 2006.
HP focuses on three priorities that reflect stakeholder interests and HP's unique capabilities:
- Increasing the energy efficiency of HP products and operations.
- Leading the industry in recycling and reuse options for end-of-life products.
- Raising standards in HP's global supply chain.
