Product Transparency Initiatives

Schneider Electric has launched a new Environmental Data Program to improve product transparency and empower customers to make greener choices. Expanding on its 'Green Premium' labeling initiative, the program now discloses 14 environmental metrics -- up from 5 -- for over 110,000 products. These metrics cover carbon footprint, energy use, recycled content, and packaging details.

The program is expected to reach 80% of Schneider’s product turnover by year-end. It is designed to help businesses align with rising regulatory demands such as the EU Green Claims Directive and supports Scope 3 emissions reporting. By embedding sustainability insights directly into product data, Schneider enables customers in the construction, industrial, and energy sectors to make informed procurement decisions that align with decarbonization goals.

This move positions Schneider as a leader in sustainability reporting while setting a new industry standard. It may influence customer loyalty and encourage other manufacturers to adopt similar transparency practices.
