Belkin, a consumer electronics brand, has released its 2024 Impact Report, announcing a major milestone, achieving carbon neutrality in Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This marks a key step in the company’s broader goal of reaching full carbon neutrality by 2030.

Now in its 40th year, Belkin continues to focus on sustainability and responsible product design. The company reported solid progress in reducing emissions and switching to more eco-friendly materials.

Belkin reduced 1,890 metric tons of CO2e at the product level, aligned with Scope 3 emissions. It also surpassed its single-use plastic packaging reduction target years ahead of schedule—cutting it by 89%. Since 2019, Belkin has saved over 2,183 metric tons of plastic, the equivalent of 114 million water bottles.

The brand has now transitioned over 359 products to use 72–75% post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials. This change has replaced 432 metric tons of virgin plastic. In 2025, popular chargers and cables will feature up to 90% PCR materials, helping reduce emissions by up to 85%. All packaging will be plastic-free and Global Recycling Standard certified.

Belkin also supports responsible recycling. It has helped recycle 28,445 metric tons of electronics, 11,463 metric tons of packaging, and 1,358 metric tons of batteries.

For its ongoing sustainability efforts, Belkin earned a Silver Medal rating from EcoVadis, placing it in the top 15% globally among companies in the consumer electronics sector.

Looking forward, Belkin remains committed to lowering its environmental impact. The company continues to invest in circular design and long-term sustainability strategies.
