What we believe

Icon for responsibly sourced

Tech leaders should use responsible manufacturers

We work with companies who share our values of human rights, ethics, and environmental responsibility.

SMART performs full due diligence on our supply chain to identify and remove minerals (tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold) that contribute to conflict in Africa.

Icon for certified durability

Products should stand the test of time

That's why every SMART product goes through rigorous accelerated life-testing for extreme temperatures, pressures, impacts, and more.

This means that schools and businesses don’t need to replace their tech as frequently.

Icon for sustainability checklist

Companies should monitor their environmental footprint

The first step on this journey is setting a measured baseline certified by a third party.

SMART does full lifecycle analysis of product Scope 3 emissions, starting with the MX series and GX series products. These analyses are also verified by an accredited third party.
