In 2026, global green policies drive low‑carbon development. As an eco‑friendly display solution, DKE e‑paper helps industries meet compliance, reduce energy use and achieve sustainable digital transformation.
2026 will see the substantive implementation of global governance policies for sustainable development. Policy priorities at both domestic and international levels are becoming increasingly clear: products must not only meet basic functional needs but also comply with full-lifecycle management requirements of recyclability, traceability, low energy consumption and long service life.
Against this backdrop, e-paper display technology, highly consistent with the global green orientation, is upgrading from an optional technology to a core carrier connecting green compliance and digitalization.
EU Regulatory Upgrade: Shifting to Low-Power Consumption from Source Design
The EU's Eco-design for Sustainable Products Regulation sets mandatory minimum sustainability requirements for core products placed on the market, focusing on durability, reusability and repairability, and demands that product lifespan extension be considered at the source of design.
As a key component of the European Green Deal, the New Battery Regulation stipulates that the recovery rate of portable batteries will reach 63% and that of industrial batteries 80% by 2030. Its core orientation is not to adjust battery technologies, but to guide the upgrading of electronic products toward low power consumption and low resource dependence.
For devices with display interfaces, traditional display solutions rely on continuous backlighting, which not only consumes power and shortens battery life but also increases the full-lifecycle carbon footprint, in obvious conflict with regulatory requirements. The implementation of the new policies has accelerated the popularization of low-power and passive display interfaces.
15th Five-Year Plan: Dual-Driven by Green Development and Digital Intelligence
The newly formulated 15th Five-Year Plan lists "green digital infrastructure" as a key direction. It also requires the establishment and improvement of product carbon footprint management systems, the promotion of energy-saving and carbon-reduction transformation in key industries, and the strengthening of full-lifecycle green control.
This orientation opens up broad space for the large-scale application of e-paper display technology. The recyclable feature of e-paper also conforms to the plan's requirements for full-lifecycle carbon reduction, making it an important technical support for the green transformation of terminal devices in various industries.
Global Vision: Empowering Compliance Upgrades with Product Matrix
As a professional e-paper display technology manufacturer and service provider deeply engaged in the global market, DKE Dongfang Kemai, based on global trends and actual industry demands, has built a full-range product matrix covering large-size, color and flexible e-paper, helping various industries achieve compliance upgrades and sustainable development.
For outdoor scenarios, large-size e-paper, with its high definition and low power consumption, is suitable for public information, smart transportation, architectural exhibitions and other fields. It can operate stably even without external power supply, greatly reducing carbon footprint. Color e-paper meets the needs of retail, medical, office and other scenarios, achieving passive operation while ensuring display effects, responding to global low-energy compliance requirements. Flexible e-paper is suitable for wearable devices, smart packaging and embedded display modules, providing high design freedom and helping products achieve lightweight and green transformation.
At a time when global sustainability policies are becoming stricter, e-paper display is no longer a simple display solution, but a key carrier for various industries to meet compliance requirements and enhance product innovation simultaneously. We will continue to focus on technological innovation and improve the product matrix to provide professional and customized e-paper display solutions for the Internet of Things sector — so that every DKE Dongfang Kemai e-paper screen will become a bridge to build a global vision and a sustainable future together.
