TÜV Rheinland also gave favorable ratings to the carbon footprint and compliance with social standards, particularly in production.

Blue Angel for our fixed-line telephones
To indicate the sustainability benefits of our products to our customers, we make suitable products identifiable with recognized environmental labels. For example, several routers and mesh devices are certified with the Green Product environmental label of the TÜV Rheinland testing service provider.

The Blue Angel was also awarded to the joint system of Telekom Deutschland and the service provider Teqcycle Solutions for taking back cell phones.
