Environment & Accessibility

Love the planet, smart for all

BRAVIA is designed to harmonise with people’s needs while respecting natural resources. We're accelerating our accessibility initiatives, enabling people who are blind or deaf to use Sony’s devices, and expanding our environmental initiatives by incorporating recycled plastic into our products. Entertainment becomes more inclusive and enjoyable for all.
