From March 22nd, TCO Certified will release draft criteria and make these available for stakeholder comment, until May 31st. During this period, drafts for all eight product categories—Displays, AIO, Notebooks, Tablets, Smartphones, Desktops, Projects and Handsets—will be released and presented via workshops and webinars.
Following the comment period, the company will evaluate feedback and make any necessary adjustments to the criteria and verification methods, before publishing its next-generation criteria in September. In December, the first wave of Next-Generation TCO Certified products will be announced.
