Dell loses its position at number 3 in the ranking to share joint 4th position, mainly because its score has not altered since the last edition of the Guide and it has therefore been overtaken by other companies.
The company has a strong definition of the precautionary principle, timelines for substituting toxic polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and brominated flame retardants (BFRs) and explicit support for Individual Producer Responsibility. Dell has announced its intention to provide free takeback and recycling services globally to individual consumers wherever its products are sold. Dell loses points for having no models free from PVC and BFRs on the market.
