EPEAT Assessment and Registration

What is EPEAT and why it matters

EPEAT is a global ecolabel for electronics. EPEAT’s free online registry identifies thousands of products from the broadest range of manufacturers across the globe.

EPEAT criteria are driven by global thought leaders and developed through a voluntary consensus process with a balanced and wide range of stakeholders. These leadership criteria address the most critical sustainability impact areas across the electronics life cycle, from materials extraction to end-of-life — climate change, chemicals of concern, circularity and sustainable use of resources, and responsible sourcing. EPEAT-registered products meet U.S. Federal Acquisition Regulation Sustainable Acquisition requirements.
