Sustainability at the Core of EPS
At EPS, sustainability is built into everything we do
We believe great technology should never come at the expense of the planet. That’s why sustainability is woven into the way we design, deliver, and support every service.
Why sustainability matters
For EPS, sustainability isn’t a policy, it’s a responsibility. We know the technology industry has a real impact on the world around us, so we take that seriously. Every decision we make, from the devices we supply to the way we manage waste, is about reducing our footprint and improving how we operate.
We’re focused on smarter energy use, responsible recycling, and long-term solutions that help both people and the planet. By working this way, we give our customers the confidence that they’re partnering with a technology provider that shares their values.
How we help customers make sustainable choices
Sustainability isn’t just something we practice; it’s something we help our customers achieve too. We offer energy-efficient technology, recycling and recovery programs, and end-of-life services that make it easy to reduce environmental impact without compromising performance.
Whether it’s choosing lower-power devices, trading in old printers, or securely recycling hardware, we support businesses in building IT environments that are both effective and environmentally responsible.
