Product Life Cycle Assessments

Seagate uses life cycle assessments, or LCAs, as a management tool for appraising and quantifying the total environmental impact of its products and packaging over the entire life cycle of particular materials, processes, products, technologies, services, or activities.
Sustainability

Sourcing Minerals Responsibly

Seagate has a team of senior-level staff members who provide continual supply chain oversight to ensure we’re upholding our mineral-resourcing commitments. We’re also a member of the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) and strongly support industry collaboration to build and maintain ethical minerals supply chains.
Sustainability

Restricted Substances

Restricted substances have a negative impact on human health and the environment, especially at the product’s end of life. Seagate’s target is to meet or exceed applicable global regulations and our customers’ strictest specifications for restricted substances. We compile customer and regulatory requirements into an overall Seagate restricted substance specification in an internal compliance database. Seagate has developed and communicated policies and procedures within the company and to our supply chain to meet environmental product requirements.   The restricted substances program is managed through Seagate’s product environmental compliance function. This function currently verifies supplier part restricted substance compliance for more than 3,000 declarable and restricted substances in our Compliance Assurance System (CAS).

Assess

Sustainability considerations early in the design process before concepts are locked down.

Engage

With our designers, marketers, and managers in a language that everyone can understand.

Support

Customers with detailed data that enables them to meet their product sustainability goals.
