Our Environmental Policy also covers resource outflows, stating that we strive to minimize generation of waste from our business by including circularity principles, such as durability, repairability, recyclability and ease-of-disassembly, into the design of our products. The policy also states that in terms of management of products in-market or at end-of-life, we strive to recover or maintain value through services and partnerships that support reuse, refurbishment or recycling of products or components through enabling remanufacturing, refurbishment, repair, out-of-warranty takeback schemes and as-a-service leasing models. This policy is approved by our Board of Directors, and Executive Management is accountable for implementation. Our policy commitments also include ongoing work to ensure compliance with product recycling legislation, where we finance recycling infrastructure according to the EU WEEE directive in EU markets. In the U.S. states, where some of our products are covered by extended producer responsibility legislation, in 2024 we established partnerships to enable end-users to send their products in for recycling.
