Waldom pioneers sustainability in the electronics industry

In their latest newsletter, ‘Building a Greener Future: Emerging Sustainability Initiatives in the Electronics Industry,’ Waldom delves into the transformative steps being taken to reduce the environmental impact of electronic manufacturing.

The newsletter highlights key strategies embraced by leading companies to promote sustainability, including:

• ESG reporting: insights into companies' environmental, social, and governance efforts reveal their commitment to sustainability. Littelfuse sets an exemplary standard with its recent ESG report.
• Sustainability committees: Corporate Social Responsibility teams like those at Murata and TE Connectivity spearhead sustainability goals and carbon footprint reduction strategies.
• Green certifications: companies pursue certifications like EcoVadis ratings and EPEAT Climate+ recognition to validate their commitment to eco-friendly practices.
• Dow Jones Sustainability Index: recognition on the DJSI reflects a company's dedication to environmental stewardship, as exemplified by TE Connectivity's consistent appearance on the index.

Waldom emphasises the importance of a circular economy with its sustainable model, repurposing billions of components and aiming for ten billion by 2028. By integrating materials back into the manufacturing process, Waldom closes the loop, minimising waste and conserving resources.
