Sustainability
We’re eager to witness the innovations of the future. Here’s how we’re preserving it.

Reduce
System76 designs computers and keyboards to encourage and empower user repairability. Your right to repair is built into the fabric of what we do. Durable materials, swappable motherboards, and lifetime support keeps components and cases in commission for years to come.
Reuse
We use aluminum in our computers, keyboards, and the spaceship of our dreams. When it’s recycled, new aluminum takes far less energy to make, and with no loss in quality. In doing this, we’re able to preserve more of the Earth’s resources while serving the innovators who seek to save it.
