CORSAIR Goes Green: Committed to a Sustainable Future, Reducing Carbon Footprint

In addition to manufacturing hardware, CORSAIR is increasingly asserting its pioneering role in creating a sustainable gaming future, committed to protecting the environment.

CORSAIR, a brand familiar to the gaming community through products such as memory, power supplies and high-end peripherals, is on a journey to "green" its operations, aiming to minimize negative impacts on the environment.

Environmental impact transparency and Net-zero commitment

One of CORSAIR’s first major steps this past year was joining the Climate Disclosure Project (CDP), a globally respected platform. Through CDP, the company began transparently reporting on its greenhouse gas emissions. This move demonstrates transparency and provides a foundation for CORSAIR to measure and develop an effective reduction roadmap.

CORSAIR has officially joined The Climate Pledge, an environmental pact initiated by Amazon and Global Optimism, committing to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2040, 10 years ahead of the Paris Agreement goal. This bold commitment places CORSAIR among the world’s leading companies in the fight against climate change.

To realize its goal, the company has achieved significant results, notably using 100% renewable energy at its headquarters in California and its main distribution facility in the Netherlands.

Green Product Lifecycle and The Revival Series Initiative

CORSAIR’s responsibility extends beyond its operations to its products. The company is committed to optimizing the entire product lifecycle, from designing energy-efficient gaming gear to ensuring it can be recycled at the end of its life.

A groundbreaking and meaningful initiative launched by CORSAIR last year was the “The Revival Series” of its “ECOfurbished” product line. These are used products that CORSAIR has meticulously refurbished to ensure that they perform like new while adhering to strict sustainability standards.

This initiative redefines the traditional RMA (return merchandise authorization) process, which often results in massive waste of resources. Instead of sending cosmetically flawed products to landfills, or incurring costly shipping costs between overseas factories, which creates additional fossil fuel emissions, ECOfurbished focuses on recertifying products, minimizing transportation, recycling waste, and using locally produced sustainable packaging. All Revival Series product boxes are made from 100% recycled paper, which is fully recyclable, reducing shipping weight, saving fuel, and supporting local businesses.

For every Revival Series product sold, the company donates $1 to Sailors for the Sea, an organization run by Oceana, one of the world's leading ocean conservation organizations. CORSAIR also partners with the non-profit One Tree Planted to contribute to tree planting projects, regenerating the planet.

Through concrete actions and long-term commitments, CORSAIR is sending a powerful message: Gaming and sustainability can go hand in hand. CORSAIR is not only building a responsible brand, but also helping to foster a future where gamers can indulge their passion without harming the Earth.
