Why are chargers disappearing from the box?
More and more laptop manufacturers ship devices without a power adapter or cable. What started with smartphones and tablets is now happening with laptops. This development is driven by European legislation (EU 2022/2380), which encourages manufacturers to standardise on USB‑C and reduce packaging.
For organisations, this means a clear shift: it’s no longer a given that employees receive a separate charger. Companies must now adopt a smart, uniform charging strategy.
What does this mean for your organisation?
No more a standard accessory, but a conscious choice
A charger is no longer a standard inclusion. That offers flexibility, but it also demands policy. Do you want one universal USB‑C charger for multiple devices, or do you select a specific solution per department?
By making deliberate choices you avoid fragmentation and create a clear, future‑oriented infrastructure.
One solution for all your devices
With USB‑C Power Delivery (PD) you can charge multiple devices from one adapter, from laptops to tablets and smartphones. By standardising on, for example, 100 W or 140 W you:
- Avoid compatibility confusion
- Simplify your IT and facilities management
- Prepare your organisation for future technological developments
More sustainable and efficient working
A uniform charging strategy delivers more than just convenience.
It reduces electronic waste, fewer lost adapters and fewer individual components to manage. The result:
- Lower operational costs
- Less environmental impact
- More efficient workspace management
What can you do now?
- Standardise on one charging class (such as 100 W or 140 W) for maximum compatibility
- Invest in high‑quality USB‑C cables that can handle heavy usage
- Integrate smart charging solutions at desks, meeting tables and flexible workspaces
- Inform employees: no charger included with the laptop any more means a shared, company‑wide, sustainable solution
Whether it’s offices, educational institutions or coworking spaces, a well thought‑through charging strategy makes the difference.
With integrated USB‑C hubs, wireless chargers or universal charging points, employees can work anywhere without fuss over cables or adapters.
