We are not sustainable

We are not sustainable. And neither is any other device maker. This industry is full of “feel good” messaging, but generates 50 million metric tons of e-waste each year. We believe there's a better way.

We are not sustainable And neither is any other device maker. This industry is full of “feel good” messaging, but generates 50 million metric tons of e-waste each year. We believe the best way to reduce environmental impact is to create products that last longer, meaning fewer new ones need to be made. Instead of operating on feels, we operate on data and actions. With funding from Intel, we commissioned Fraunhofer IZM to do a detailed life cycle analysis (LCA) on Framework Laptop 13 to help us understand where we are today and where we can continue to improve. Check out our thoughts on reducing environmental impact and download the LCA report here…

    I honestly dont mind paying a bit premium to System76 if they have good quality and better support for Linux.

    I have grown tired of the cheap hinges that have been plaguing laptops.

      Yeah… I’m not sure about the quality being really better than competition. Tho maybe Linux support may be better depending on what components different laptops use.

        I’m 90% sure all of System76’s offerings are rebadged Clevo laptops.

          There’s an explanation of the relationship floating somewhere online, but yeah. S76 works with Clevo to design their products, then does the software and firmware support in-house. Clevo will offer their own product reusing portions—i.e. the chassis—of the S76 model.
