ThinkPad Portfolio Increases Focus on Circular Economy
Lenovo is committed to creating sustainable products and investing in a resilient global supply chain. To achieve this, its design and engineering teams dedicate countless hours to researching innovations in manufacturing, materials, energy efficiency, servicing, and packaging. The company strives to reduce carbon emissions by increasing the use of sustainable aviation fuel and biofuels for shipping, adopting energy-efficient manufacturing processes, and installing renewable energy in its factories.
Lenovo also empowers its customers to achieve their sustainability goals by offering services such as CO2 Offset Service, which has already offset over one million metric tonnes of carbon dioxide from purchases of Think PCs. Its Asset Recovery Service has also been helping customers dispose of end-of-life technology hardware sustainably for the past 15 years.
The latest update to the ThinkPad portfolio features new and updated models that enhance Lenovo’s comprehensive laptop offerings. The company’s focus on supporting a circular economy is reflected in the increased use of recycled materials and Post Consumer Content (PCC) plastic in select components. Lenovo aims to integrate post-consumer recycled content into 100% of its PC products by 2025. The following table summarizes Lenovo’s ongoing efforts to implement sustainable practices in its ThinkPad product design and packaging.
In addition, the recently launched Lenovo Commercial Vantage app in December 2022 will now be available on the latest ThinkPad Z, X13, T, and L series. With its user-friendly interface and informative labels, the Commercial Vantage software is designed to guide and motivate users to adopt specific settings that can help minimize power consumption and prolong the lifespan of their components.
