Sustainability Approach
Acer considers environmental factors throughout the product lifecycle, including material selection, packaging, shipping, usage, and recycling. Acer utilizes the PAIA (Product Attribute to Impact Algorithm) platform, developed based on MIT's methodology, to calculate product carbon footprints. This platform streamlines the process and provides consistent results for informed decisions on product sustainability.
Note on Estimates: All carbon footprint estimates are subject to uncertainty. For this product, the 5th and 95th percentiles of the carbon footprint estimate are 197 kgCO2e and 929 kgCO2e, respectively. The mean estimate is 459 kgCO2e with a standard deviation of 124 kgCO2e.

About the Data
The carbon footprint calculation used the Product Attribute to Impact Algorithm (PAIA) model, Desktop tool, version 1.5.1. This tool is copyrighted by the ICT Benchmarking collaboration, including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Materials Systems Laboratory and partners. The LCA results are significantly influenced by the assumptions made, and the PAIA tools are not configured for simultaneous simulation. Therefore, it is not recommended to use PAIA results for comparisons.
