IEEE P1680.1 Standard for Environmental Assessment of Personal Computer Products

Standard 1680.1 is currently being revised from the existing 1680 Standard, and will consist of environmental criteria and other materials that relate specifically to personal computer products. The existing section one of 1680 is being revised into the new umbrella standard 1680. The material in sections two through four of the existing Standard 1680 that relate specifically to personal computer products will be cut from that standard in its revision process, edited as appropriate, and inserted into this new standard 1680.1.

This Standard provides a clear and consistent set of performance criteria for the design of personal computer products, and provides an opportunity to secure market recognition for efforts to reduce the environmental impact of electronic products.

The environmental performance criteria of this Standard are intended to define a measure of environmental leadership in: the design and manufacture of personal computer products; the delivery of specified services that are associated with the sale of the product; and in associated corporate performance characteristics.

This Standard is defined with the intention that the criteria are technically feasible to achieve, but that only products demonstrating the leading environmental performance currently available in the marketplace would meet them at the time of their adoption. As the environmental performance of products that are available in the marketplace improves, it is intended that the criteria will be updated and revised to set a higher performance standard for leadership products.
