Congratulations!
You have just purchased a TCO'99 approved and labeled product! Your
choice has provided you with a product developed for professional use.
Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the burden on the
environment and also to the further development of environmentally
adapted electronics products.
Why do we have environmentally labeled computers?
In many countries, environmental labeling has become an established
method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the
environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics
equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are
used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so
far possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment,
most of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy
consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work
(internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of
electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g.acidic
and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save
energy. Electronics equipment in offices is often left running continuously
and thereby consumes a lot of energy.
What does labeling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme, which
provides for international and environmental labeling of personal computers.
The labeling scheme is developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The
