Razer has long been a name trusted in the tech industry. It is known for its reliable keyboards and mice that offer speed and comfort. We’ve been giving the brand attention for its numerous remarkable products and services in recent years.

We will learn more about Razer’s campaign to reach environmental sustainability in the coming days. More brands and companies are pushing to go green to make the planet ready for the future. To start, two eco-friendly products are being introduced: the DeathAdder Essential and the Basilisk V3.

The two new mice accessories come with the UL’s Ecologo certification. They are the first from Razer to get this honor. You will see the certification in their packaging once they are out in the market just before the year 2022 ends.

Razer’s Basilisk V3 and DeathAdder Essential passed the certification, specifically, UL2710. The global safety certification company has been established to check and approve the safety of devices and peripherals. UL2710 investigates the many processes that go into producing a device, including the manufacturing materials, use of energy, corporate practices, packaging, manufacturing, operations, end-of-life management, and even extension of useful life.

With this milestone, Razer is also the first gaming manufacturer to get a certification. As a result, you will soon see the Ecologo mark in future Razer products. It tells us the quality of a product and that it offers less environmental impact.

Razer’s Sustainability Manager, Kenneth Ng, had this to say about the new products and certification: “What better way to celebrate World Environment Day than to share with our community that the very mice that help them win in games are also a win for the environment.” Ng also said: “Unlike companies making their own claims about their products being sustainable, we go the extra mile to prove to our fans that our products are truly sustainable.”

The new Razer products receiving the Ecologo Certification have gone through testing and passed a comprehensive list of criteria. This move is very beneficial to Razer and then consumers and the planet Earth in the long run. Sustainable products are the future of manufacturing and gaming. Several industries need to catch up by coming up with standards for measuring sustainability. There wasn’t much effort in the gaming industry until Razer made the first step. UL and Razer teamed up to work and produced the industry-level standards. Hopefully, other companies and manufacturers will follow suit by also measuring and monitoring the criteria.

It’s not really surprising that Razer has partnered with UL for this project. The brand has since been making several steps to going green. That Razer x Cariuma collaboration, which brought us the Sneki Snek Sneakers, were part of the #GoGreenWithRazer campaign. The ECOLOGO Mark achievement is just one of the brand’s many efforts to deliver greener products and services.
