Minimize Our Environmental Impact
Throughout company facilities and the entire product life cycle, National Instruments consistently works toward its long-term goal to minimize its environmental footprint. This commitment includes setting expectations with suppliers, recycling old NI products, and finding ways to conserve resources such as water, electricity, and natural gas. To achieve these and other goals, the company encourages and supports employees who drive grassroots projects to reduce environmental impact.

“The National Instruments supplier program is an excellent example of corporate responsibility. Following NI’s lead, we have implemented similar programs such as EICC compliance, a supplier code of conduct, and employee philanthropy and volunteerism programs. We have seen success with these programs at headquarters as well as in our Hungary and Malaysia offices.”
