KEY POINTS
- Global Sustainability Leadership: ASUS was the only Taiwanese company listed in the award category "Computers and Peripheral Equipment"
- Eco-Friendly Product Success: Sustainability drives ASUS design, resulting in 89% eco-friendly product revenue and EPEAT Climate+ Champion status

TORONTO, Feb. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ASUS today announced that the company has recently been honored by Corporate Knights as one of the "Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations" during the World Economic Forum (WEF). This prestigious recognition reaffirms international acclaim for the company’s long-term commitment and excellence in sustainable development.
The inclusion highlights the company's comprehensive strategy and tangible performance across its four sustainability pillars: Climate Action, Circular Economy, Responsible Manufacturing, and Value Creation. This demonstrates the company’s firm commitment to integrating sustainability into its core business operations. Following a rigorous evaluation of its ESG metrics, including sustainable revenue ratio, sustainable investment ratio, and sustainable revenue momentum, ASUS was the only Taiwanese company listed in the award category of "Computers and Peripheral Equipment".
Strategic Climate Action and AI-Enabled Carbon Management
To align the entire ASUS group toward its 2050 Net Zero goal, ASUS has leveraged its expertise to develop a carbon data management platform that utilizes AI-assisted decision-making to support reduction efforts across its supply chain and subsidiaries. To date, 56% of the company's global operations are powered by renewable energy, and the carbon emission intensity of key suppliers has decreased by 28% compared to the base year. This solid environmental management led ASUS to achieve a Double ‘A’ rating in the 2025 CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) for both Climate Change and Water Security. Simultaneously, the company integrates sustainability principles into product development parameters through Design Thinking.
As of 2024, revenue from eco-friendly products has reached 89%. Furthermore, by the end of 2025, ASUS became one of the first to successfully pass the latest EPEAT (Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool) standards managed by the Global Electronics Council (GEC), maintaining its Climate+ Champion status and once again validating its leading position in climate action and product responsibility.
Sustainable Innovation in Practice: Product-Level Leadership
This sustainability strategy is reflected directly in ASUS product innovation, including the newly launched ExpertBook Ultra unveiled at CES 2026. Designed with lifecycle responsibility in mind, ExpertBook Ultra incorporates up to 90% recycled magnesium-aluminum alloy, 30–35% recycled plastics, and 100% recycled rare-earth magnet elements, demonstrating how premium performance and responsible material choices can coexist.
The product also integrates the ASUS Digital Product Passport (DPP) framework and applies the Product Environmental Footprint (PEF) methodology early in the design phase, enabling transparent tracking of environmental impact across 16 EU-standard indicators. Complemented by 90% FSC®-certified, chlorine- and heavy-metal-free packaging, ExpertBook Ultra exemplifies ASUS’s commitment to circular economy principles, lifecycle transparency, and sustainable design at scale.
Excellence in Governance and Future Outlook
In terms of governance, ASUS maintains its standard of honest and transparent disclosure, earning recognition from the Asia Sustainability Reporting Awards (ASRA) for the fifth time. Among its recognized publications, the Climate-Related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) Report received the Platinum Award, while the Sustainability Report and Nature Impact Assessment Report both earned Gold Awards.
Looking forward, ASUS will continue to uphold its pragmatic sustainability strategy by integrating digital empowerment and launching its next five-year action plan, setting even more ambitious goals to lead the industry toward a stable and sustainable future.
