Anker's Charge to Sustainability

Reimagine
The Materials We Use

A New Vision for Materials

Sustainability isn't just a buzzword for us at Anker, it's a core belief. That's why we are lessening our dependence on petroleum-based plastics and finding eco-friendly alternatives. Our commitment to sustainability has led us to reimagine the materials we use, paving the way for a more responsible future.

What We Have Achieved

Eco-Friendly Materials

Less means more when it comes to our approach with materials. We aim to explore eco-friendly alternatives of petroleum-based plastics starting from 2022, with the first and second generations of our bio-based cables.

Product Feature Housing Utilizing Recycled Materials (PCR Material)

In September 2024, Anker launched six new products, including chargers, power banks, wireless chargers, and cables, all of which feature housings made from PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled) materials. Additionally, in response to customer demands, customized products incorporate no less than 75% PCR materials.

Bio-Based Materials

Anker's eco-friendly cable (Anker 541 Bio-Based / Bio-Based Nylon) is made with bio-based materials extracted from plants, reducing the dependency
on petroleum-based plastics by 30%-40%.

Enhanced Product Design

Anker is actively seeking ways to reduce plastic material in our product design and development process.

Nano Charger | Compact to Reduce Plastic Usage

We redesigned our charger to make it a lot smaller. It's 70% smaller than an original 30W charger, saving 30.9 g of plastic with a single charger.

Anker Charger (120W, 3 Ports)｜Less is More

Minimal Plastic Packaging

As part of our commitment to sustainability, we're constantly looking for ways to minimizing plastic packaging and reducing environmental burden.

Less Plastic, More Sustainability

In 2024, we have greatly minimized the use of single-use plastics and continuously addressed the challenges of eliminating plastics from packaging. For new products in the mobile charging and headphone categories, over 80% of the packaging uses paperboard or pulp trays instead of disposable plastic trays, saving 150 tons of plastic.

Our Plastic Reduction Initiative

Sustainable Printing

We reduced environmental impact by switching to soy ink for packaging printing and decreasing foil stamping in 2022.

Material Reduction

Lightweight Packaging

Anker's mobile charging products adopt ultra-compact packaging. The packaging volume of the Anker 20W wall charger is reduced by about 60% compared to PowerPort III 20W Cube, increasing the quantity per shipment by 150%.
In soundcore's headphone category, the optimized packaging reduces the volume of each TWS headphone by 40% compared to soundcore Liberty 4, allowing a 66% increase in shipment quantity.

Minimal Plastic Packaging

As part of our commitment to sustainability, we're constantly looking for ways to minimizing plastic packaging and reducing environmental burden.

Our Plastic Reduction Initiative

To achieve sustainable development goals, we plan to extend the use of fiber materials for cushioning large-scale products, further reducing the use of plastic in 2025. In addition, by 2027, we aim to eliminate all plastic components[1] in the packaging of compact-sized products by using 100% fiber materials.

[1] Exceptions include plastic components used for special channels, regions, customer requirements, or repackaged for thirdparty distribution.

Our Path to
a Greener Future

Anker's Nano USB-C Lineup
is Now Greener

Our Anker Nano USB-C fast charging lineup just got eco-friendlier. By using up to 80% post-consumer recycled plastic in the exterior casing, we've lessened the impact of disposable plastics.

We've also reduced carbon emissions by 80%, as verified by ISO standards, in line with our commitment to creating products that are both environmentally conscious and high-performing.

Plastics in Packaging

We understand the growing public concern about single-use plastics. Therefore, Anker is determined to increase the use of post-consumer recycled plastic (PCR) in new packaging projects from 2023, with a vision of achieving zero plastic starting in 2027.

2023

Starting in 2023, we are stepping up our sustainability game with new packaging initiatives incorporating certified post-consumer recycled plastic (PCR).

2025

Starting in 2025, we are moving toward plastic-free packaging with our new mobile charging accessories, including cables, chargers, power banks, and hubs.

2027

Starting in 2027, we are charging ahead with a commitment to plastic-free packaging across all new Anker products.

Other Materials in Packaging

In 2022, we started to use FSC-certified paper and eco-friendly soy ink for charging categories. Until 2024, 90% of new products used FSC-certified paper and eco-friendly soy ink.

Anker's Most Popular
Lineup is Going Greener

We're proud to announce that we'll be using recycled materials on the exterior of our products across Anker's most popular lineup, gradually reducing the impact of disposable plastics.
