Webinar on-demand: Presenting the second draft of TCO Certified, generation 9

Watch this webinar on-demand to get a run-through of what’s new and updated in the second draft of TCO Certified, generation 9.

Even though the development process is ongoing until June 2021, some focus areas in the next generation of TCO Certified are clear:

We will take the next step in socially responsible manufacturing and go further up the supply chain than the final assembly factory. Criteria for anti-corruption and mineral sourcing will be improved.

We move forward to enable circular IT solutions with more ambitious criteria aimed at extending the life of IT products, improving recyclability, and reducing e-waste.

In consideration of factory worker’s health and safety, process chemicals will be included in our work with hazardous substances.

New sustainability performance indicators (SPI) are added. This helps purchasing organizations make informed choices and measure the sustainability impact.

During the webinar, we went through the timeline for the development process and look at all eight chapters in the draft criteria documents. Our criteria development team explained the new and updated criteria, to help you understand how the draft compares to the current generation of TCO Certified.

This webinar on-demand is mainly aimed at those familiar with the criteria in TCO Certified and with an interest in the development of the criteria documents for different product categories.
