LESSKPIs• Buy-to-use• % recycled mateirals• % EOL recycling • Energy Consumption
SUMMARY• Wisetek: encouraging use of refurbished parts,
particularly for large volume internal use• Huawei: responsible sourcing of materials and
responsible use; total ban of harmful substance• SRI: Manage e-waste for less extraction
OPPORTUNITIES• Increase e-waste recovery capacity globally• Regulatory embrace of e-waste processing for
reduction of primary production• Materials systems that require less critical material• Communication of best practice

KPIs• Increased product lifetime• Resale Price
SUMMARY• Wisetek: remanufacturing and repair• Wisetek: working with electronics OEMs to
decommission thousands of devices• Huawei: design for reparability• CRU: reduced product lifespans a real
challenge, not just repair, but initial span
OPPORTUNITIES• Create modular, reparable products• Longer lifetime fundamentally: batteries,
screens, etc.

SUMMARY• Huawei: using bio-based materials for
packaging and responsible sourcing of minerals
• SRI: Ethical, sustainable sourcing and recycling
KPIs• % innovative materials• Performance by weight• % product usage• EBITDA on Product Weight
OPPORTUNITIES• Create new, more versatile materials• Limit number of distinct materials in new products• Design for recycle or reuse
E-Waste is a big problem and a huge opportunity
Materials development with positive lifecycle is critical
Sourcing materials efficiently and using critical materials sparingly will allow us to hit our KPIs
Optimizing full-lifecycle for device and product design
