GreenPeak Technologies is one of the leading fabless semiconductor companies that offer innovative ultra low power wireless data communication technologies for consumer electronics. The company recently announced its environmental management system has been awarded an ISO 14001:2004 certification from Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance.

From day one of its founding, GreenPeak's green vision was established as its technology enables the reduction or elimination of battery usage and energy efficient applications for sensor networks such as in homes and buildings. These sensor control networks will also be used to make people and companies more aware of energy consumption and the capability to manage and reduce it.
