In today’s world, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword, it’s a business imperative. As environmental concerns grow and organisations prioritise their ESG commitments into their operations, the demand for eco-conscious technology is growing fast.

At Data#3, we’re proud to partner with HP, one of the industry’s most recognised sustainability leaders, to help organisations take real steps toward a greener future. As a 5-Star HP Amplify Impact Partner, we’re driving this mission forward by delivering smarter, more sustainable technology solutions that make an impact today and into the future.

A Shared Vision for a Sustainable Future

As a 5-Star HP Amplify Impact Partner, Data#3 is proud to be recognised for our strong commitment to sustainability and social responsibility, helping customers embed these values into their technology strategy.

Paving the way for a greener digital future

Our partnership supports sustainable practices across all stages of the technology lifecycle, including:

• Improved energy efficiency in devices and operations
• Sustainable, recyclable packaging
• Use of recycled materials, including post-consumer plastics and ocean-bound plastics
• Enhanced repairability and product longevity
• Reduced carbon emissions throughout manufacturing.

Windows 11: A Platform for Sustainable Innovation

Windows 11 further empowers sustainable IT with features that include:

• Carbon-Aware Updates: Updates install at times when grid energy is cleaner and less carbon-intensive
• Energy-Efficient Settings: Easily enable recommended power, battery, and screen settings to optimise sustainability
• Efficiency Mode in Microsoft Edge: Reduces browser energy usage and prolongs battery life
• Energy Saver Mode: Helps devices operate efficiently while conserving power.

These features come to life on HP devices, fully supported and promoted by Data#3 to help you reduce your carbon footprint while delivering a fast, reliable, and energy-efficient user experience.

Partnering to deliver smarter, sustainable tech solutions

HP’s environmental leadership includes ambitious goals and tangible progress:


• 30% Post-Consumer Recycled Plastic by 2025: Many HP devices already contain significant recycled content
• 75% Circularity by 2030: Aiming for most product and packaging materials to be reused or recycled
• Responsible Chemistry: Actively eliminating materials of concern and finding safer alternatives
• Ocean-Bound Plastics: Repurposing waste materials into high-quality components in HP products.

The HP EliteBook Ultra is a great example of sustainable innovation in action. Its enclosure is made from 90% recycled magnesium, and it ships in packaging that’s 100% sustainably sourced, proving you don’t have to compromise on performance to choose a responsible design. Plus, with Intelligent Hibernate, a smart power management feature that learns your usage patterns, it helps extend battery life and cut down on energy waste, so you get more done with less impact.

As a 5-Star Amplify Impact Partner, Data#3 plays a critical role in guiding customers to sustainable choices and advocating for long-term environmental stewardship.
