SCC & Lenovo: Smart Tech That Puts The Planet First

Partners

20.03.2024

It’s no secret that the world has altered dramatically over the last several years. And in times of collective uncertainty, businesses like yours are expected to respond by doing the right thing for people and the planet.

But you can’t do it alone – you need the right tech support. Luckily, when it comes to making your tech last longer, both SCC and Lenovo have partnered to offer smart tech that puts the planet first.

All of Lenovo’s devices are built with ultra-efficient Intel® processors, designed to keep as much as possible out of landfills – not to mention their track record of meeting and exceeding sustainability targets. That’s the kind of business SCC loves to work with. We make it simple to switch to technology powered by Intel® today, so you can start maximising the lifecycle of your business devices. Find out how below.

How Can Lenovo and Intel Tech Help You Build A Responsible Business?

Stay On Schedule with Global Net-Zero Targets

You can count on Lenovo to practise what they preach. Since 2018, approximately 50 million of their laptops have been made with low-temperature solder technology, reducing energy and 10,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions.

That’s why the ThinkPad® X1 Fold, powered by Intel vPro®, An Intel® Evo™ Design, is rated gold by the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT).

Implementing Lenovo devices into your fleet means that your business can help reduce your long-term environmental impact.

Extend the Life Cycle of Your Devices

No more replacing devices every few years, Lenovo keeps them in use for longer thanks to improved repairability and refurbishment.
Business laptops, such as the ThinkPad® X1 Carbon powered by Intel vPro®, An Intel® Evo™ Design, offer premium warranty services that extend their lifespan and decrease e-waste.
It’s been a great success so far, and over the last ten years, Intel® Core™-based PCs like the Lenovo ThinkPad XI series offer 2.47 times improved performance per watt.

Reduce Package Waste & Emissions

Approximately 54 tons of plastic tape are eliminated from packaging for Lenovo PCs. Instead, devices such as the Lenovo ThinkPad Carbon X1, are packaged using materials like bamboo and sugarcane, which are 100% rapid-renewable.

Increase The Energy Efficiency of Your Devices

Every year, Lenovo users avoid 28 metric tons of CO2 emissions thanks to ultra-efficient Intel® 13th Gen Core processors in every device. Intel® treats and returns 99% of the water used in its manufacturing to communities or the environment, with a goal of being water-positive by 2030.

Make Use of Recycled Materials

By 2025, 100% of Lenovo’s PC products will contain post-consumer recycled content materials, making it even easier for businesses to do their bit for the environment.
For example, ThinkPad products like the ThinkPad® X1 Fold contain recycled plastics sourced from end-of-life IT and electronics equipment.
