Smart. Sharp. Sustainable.

Innovating today for a cleaner, smarter tomorrow.

At Sharp, we believe technology should not only enrich lives—but protect the planet. That’s why sustainability is embedded in everything we do—from how we design and manufacture our products, to how we support responsible disposal and recycling at end-of-life. We’re reimagining what modern technology can achieve—for people and for the environment.

A Global Vision, A Local Commitment

While Sharp’s sustainability strategy is driven at a global level, its impacts are felt locally—including right here in New Zealand. Whether through our energy-saving technologies, recycling partnerships, or responsible sourcing, Sharp New Zealand proudly supports these global initiatives in tangible, real-world ways.

Designing for Energy Efficiency and Lower Carbon Impact

Consumer electronics play a significant role in global energy consumption—and much of their environmental impact occurs during everyday use. At Sharp, we are committed to reducing this footprint through smarter, more energy-efficient product design.

By continuously enhancing the energy performance of our products and reducing material use, we not only lower power consumption but also help reduce emissions over the entire product lifecycle. A strong example of this is our latest 8K television model. Through innovations in both energy efficiency and lightweight structural design, we were able to reduce life cycle CO₂ emissions by 18% compared to previous models.

This improvement reflects a broader effort across all Sharp product categories to address climate change at every stage—from raw material sourcing and manufacturing, through to consumer use and responsible end-of-life recycling. By making energy efficiency a core priority in product development, we’re helping consumers enjoy cutting-edge technology while shrinking their environmental footprint.
