One step at a time towards a cleaner future

Every year on September 21, World Zero Emissions Day spotlights the urgent need to reduce the carbon we put into the atmosphere. Although the day has just passed, at Philips, our efforts continue every single day. Here's some of the steps we have made:

•	We've been 100% carbon neutral in our operations¹ since the end of 2020.

•	We are shifting to 75% renewable energy by the end of 2025, leaving fossil fuels behind.

•	In 2024, our Refurbishment program reused 10.5 tonnes² of materials from returned devices, the same weight as over half a million plastic bottles kept out of landfills.

•	9 out of 10 Philips consumer products are free of PVC/BFR plastics, making them kinder to the environment when it’s time to discard or recycle.
•	More than 90% of all our new products have paper-based packaging which facilitate recycling and decompose naturally.

Smarter choices, smaller footprints

Our designers and engineers have spent over 30 years making our products more energy efficient so you can use less power, without thinking twice.

Hair Dryer 8000

Uses up to 50%³ less energy yet dries more powerfully than any other Philips high-speed hair dryer.

Sonicare 5000-7000

Up to 54%⁴ more energy efficient with a powerful battery that lasts up to 3 weeks.

Refurbished IPL Devices

Same performance but with 78% lower carbon footprint. Thanks to reusing 100% of product weight material.⁵

Video Monitors

Capture every moment with energy-saving ECO mode.

From saving energy to reducing waste, we’re taking steps toward a cleaner tomorrow. We hope this gives you a better sense of what’s happening behind the scenes, and that you continue to be part of this journey with us!

¹Our operations include our Philips manufacturing sites, offices, warehouses, business travel and logistics sites around the world.
²How is it calculated: We refurbish open box returns from customers and retailers (including from our subscription plans). For calculating the waste reduction impact, we consider the weight of these returned products without accessories and any packaging materials. Only Philips refurbished Personal Health products are included in this impact calculation.
³Compared to Philips BHD530 with 2300 W, tested at the highest heat and speed settings.
⁴This is average energy usage reduction we made with our new 7000 series compared to its predecessor.
⁵In scope: Product, packaging material, and reverse logistics from Philips for returns of the Lumea S8000. Out of scope: Chemicals, energy required for reprocessing, incoming part, and material transport. Calculation based on the ReCiPe2016 and ecoinvent3.6 database, assuming that all accessories, adapter, and packaging need to be replaced.
