Sustainable Procurement

The CSU is committed to promoting environmental sustainability on all 23 campus, with programs to source clean and reliable products to enhance sustainable procurement.


​Buy Recycled

The CSU Buy Recycled Campaign is a joint effort between the campuses and the administrative offices of the CSU in support of the State Agency Buy Recycled Campaign (SABRC). The CSU Buy Recycled Campaign was developed to comply with state laws requiring the procurement of recycled content products.

It is the CSU’s policy to promote environmentally responsible procurement practices. Campuses are encouraged, whenever feasible, to maximize the purchase of goods that contain recycled content or may​​ be recycled or reused when discar​​ded.
