Life Cycle Assessment and Product Carbon Footprint

We carried out the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of EPEAT registered products to calculate and evaluate their environmental impact. The GHG(greenhouse gas) emissions generated during the product cycle, including the procurement of parts, the manufacturing process, the use and the disposal of the products have also been measured.
The results of LCA of each product can be found below.

Corporate Carbon Footprint

We calculated Corporate Carbon Footprint (Scope 1, 2 and 3)* of EIZO and our consolidated companies. Results for fiscal 2024 can be found here. The results have been verified by a third-party organization.

GHG emission measurements may differ from those in the other documents due to differences in calculation conditions and scope.

※Scope 1: Direct GHG emissions that occur from sources that are controlled or owned by an organization (e.g., emissions associated with fuel combustion in boilers, furnaces, vehicles).
※Scope 2: Indirect GHG emissions that occur from using electricity, heat, or steam.
※Scope 3: All sources not within an organization’s scope 1 and 2 boundary (purchased goods and services, upstream transportation and distribution, business travel, employee commuting, use of sold products, investments etc.)

GHG(Greenhouse Gas) Emissions from Transportation

We calculated the amount of GHG emissions generated during the transportation of EPEAT registered products from the factory to customers.
The results for fiscal year 2023 can be found here. The results have been verified by a third-party organization.

GHG Emission Reduction Targets
By fiscal year 2030, we aim to reduce GHG emissions generated from transportation by 5% per monitor compared to fiscal year 2021 for U.S. domestic transportation.
By fiscal year 2031, we aim to reduce GHG emissions generated from transportation by 5% per monitor compared to fiscal year 2022 for Germany, Austria, Netherland, and Belgium domestic transportation.

Annual summary (EU)

Items	FY2022(Base year)	FY2023
Total transport quantity [pcs]	107,907	119,723
Total transport weight [ton]	1,143	1,656
GHG emission [kg-CO₂e]	584,606	800,926
GHG emissions per product [kg-CO₂e]	5.42	6.69
Reduction rate [%]	-	+23.4

Note: The FY2022 figures are based on shipment data to Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, and Belgium. The FY2023 figures are based on shipment data to Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Belgium, and the U.K.

Summary

The GHG emissions per monitor shipped to the U.S. and Europe increased significantly compared to the base year.
This is largely due to changes in the emission factors for land transportation (kgCO₂e/ton-km) and updates to the values of those factors.
We will continue to improve the accuracy of calculation by choosing more practical intensity factors, as well as by modal shifts and more efficient transportation (including reductions in product packaging size and weight).

Supplier Environmental Performance

The LCD module is the part that emits the most CO₂ among the materials making up the products. EIZO closely monitors the environmental performance of LCD module suppliers for EPEAT registered products.
