End of Life and Reuse
We make upgrading your technology easy to make your life easier. This also means products can last longer benefiting you and our planet.
We also design for recyclability, so that when your products finally reach the end of their life, it's easy for our recycling partners to disassemble and process. To do this, we collaborate with those same partners to determine which design features are best for recyclability. This takes into consideration easy disassembly, minimal glues and adhesives, restrictions on paints and coatings, and labeling recyclable materials so our environmental partners can identify and put them toward the best possible reuse. For example, the exterior of our XPS™ 13 Ultrabook™ uses polymer-reinforced carbon fibers, which make the computer lightweight and cool to the touch. But that material had to also conform to EPEAT's criteria for recyclability, ensuring our recycling partners could return the material to usefulness.
