A reused product/part should replace a new product/part shipment, and the product/part needs to have been used by a user and refurbished before being sent to a different user. Prior to 2021, this data also included some units remarketed to customers that had not been previously used and refurbished. Beginning in 2021, most repair and reuse data is based on the actual weight for every product, adjusted for estimated amounts that were recycled or for which no issues requiring repair were found. Prior to 2021, data was estimated based on the average weight of each product category. *** The repair and reuse rate is based on the weight of hardware products returned for repair and reuse compared to the weight of our product sales during the year. **** Recycling volumes in 2021 were adversely impacted in some locations by lockdowns and customer behavior impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. ***** During 2021, 41,600 tonnes of waste electronic equipment was collected on HP’s behalf to comply with producer responsibility requirements of the EU WEEE Directive, compared to 92,600 tonnes of HP electronic equipment placed on the relevant markets during the year. Data includes EU countries in which the authorities or the legislative system provide visibility of the recycling volume allocated to HP. Take-back volumes related to non-EU legislation are excluded. ****** The recycling rate is based on the weight of hardware products returned for recycling compared to the weight of our product sales from seven years ago (the estimated average lifespan of our products). It is impractical for HP to report the recycling rate by product category, as materials are not typically sorted at collection points. This rate also does not include packaging recycling, due to limited data available from recyclers. 73 2021 HP Sustainable Impact Report www.hp.com/sustainableimpact
