Talkpod's Commitment to a Greener Planet: Celebrating Earth Day 2025

Shenzhen, China – April 22, 2025

As Earth Day 2025 approaches, Talkpod is reaffirming its deep commitment to environmental stewardship through a comprehensive action plan aimed at protecting our planet's precious resources and minimizing waste. Our dedication extends beyond mere compliance; it's embedded in our core values and operational practices.

At Talkpod, we understand that responsible manufacturing is paramount. Our products strictly adhere to stringent international environmental standards, including RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals), ensuring that our devices are safe for both users and the environment.

Our proactive "Protect Our Planet" initiative encompasses several key areas:

• Sustainable Packaging: All Talkpod product packaging is crafted from 100% recyclable corrugated paper. We also prioritize minimalist packaging designs to reduce material usage and decrease fuel consumption during transportation, thereby lowering our carbon footprint.
• Responsible Recycling Programs: In China, we've launched a free materials recycling program for our products. Furthermore, in Europe, we are fully compliant with the Battery Directive and Packaging Ordinances (specifically in France and Germany), actively participating in recycling schemes and fulfilling our extended producer responsibility.
• Eco-Conscious Product Design & Manufacturing: We are committed to designing and producing our communication devices using recyclable materials wherever possible. Our manufacturing facilities are increasingly powered by renewable energy sources, including solar, wind, and hydropower, significantly reducing our reliance on fossil fuels.
• Optimized Energy Consumption: We actively work to reduce light and fuel waste during nighttime operations, and continuously invest in more energy-efficient production equipment, such as servo motor injection molding machines, to lower overall energy consumption.
• Streamlined Charging Solutions: A majority of our products now utilize universal USB charging protocols. We are also progressively moving towards offering products without bundled power adapters as a standard inclusion, reducing electronic waste and offering greater convenience for our users.

These actions reflect Talkpod's unwavering dedication to sustainability. We believe that safeguarding our planet's future is a shared responsibility, and we invite our global partners and customers to join us in contributing to a healthier, more sustainable world. Together, we can create a brighter future for generations to come.
