Our Operations
As the size and scale of our operations continues to grow, we remain conscious of the environmental impact our business is having.
We bring a sustainability lens to all our decision-making and engrain sustainability at the core of our operations.
Dicker Data is a proud member of the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO) and we are continuing our efforts to making a circular economy for packaging in Australia a reality. In FY24, we further reduced our use of new boxes for shipments, building on our progress from FY23. We support APCO’s 2025 goal of making all packaging reusable, recyclable, or compostable. We also recycle all eligible waste materials and have replaced plastic packaging with cardboard. Any unnecessary packaging is recycled before shipping.
Dicker Data boasts the largest ecosystem of sustainable vendor solutions. As our brands develop more eco-friendly products, they are increasingly recommended by partners to end-customers. HP, a leader in sustainability, pioneered the use of recycled ocean plastic in their devices. In FY24, we saw a 16% increase in HP devices shipped with 50% recycled ocean plastic, highlighting the demand for these eco-conscious products that match the performance of traditional devices.
