At HP, we support the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and recognize the importance of contributing to a more sustainable future. We have existing programs that contribute to the progress of 16 of the 17 goals and continue to drive innovations that help achieve them. We aim to enable our stakeholders and partners to contribute toward more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable development. We have taken a step further by reporting against the SDG Ambition Benchmarks developed by the UN Global Compact. These benchmarks allow HP to further demonstrate how HP aligns actions to the SDGs.
Some of our current goals include:
- Reduce HP value chain GHG emissions by 50% by 2030 (compared to 2019), and achieve net-zero emissions by 20401
- Reach 75% circularity for products and packaging by 20302
- Recycle 1.2 million tonnes of hardware and supplies by 2025, since the beginning of 2016
- Counteract deforestation for non-HP paper used in our products and print services by 2030 and continue to source only sustainable fiber for all HP-brand paper and paper-based packaging for home and office printers and supplies, PCs, and displays3,4
- Accelerate digital equity for 150 million people by 2030, since the beginning of 2021.5

1 Absolute reduction of Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions compared to 2019. Excludes non-HP paper consumed during product use. As of November 2024 these goals were approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). SBTi validated long-term target is for 90% reduction in Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by 2040.
2 Percentage of HP’s total annual product and packaging content, by weight, that will come from recycled and renewable materials and reused products and parts by 2030.
3 Fiber by weight will be certified to third-party standard, with preference to FSCs, or recycled.
4 HP-brand paper and paper-based packaging for home and office printers and supplies, PCs, and displays are derived from certified and recycled sources, with a preference for Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) certification. Packaging is the box that comes with the product and all paper-based materials inside the box.
5 Our programs aim to accelerate digital equity through providing access to at least one of the following: technology, digital literacy and AI, or digital skills content. Digital equity data includes both direct and indirect reach. Indirect reach is sometimes based on estimates using multipliers. 2024 data include a small amount of 2023 data that was not available at the time of publication of the 2023 HP Sustainable Impact Report.
