PANASONIC BATTERIES
PANASONIC EVOLTA, THE FLAGSHIP BRAND DRIVING THE FULL RANGE
Ongoing development is at the heart of the Panasonic brand and our batteries continue to set new
standards for performance and endurance. Panasonic unleashed the next generation of portable power
across Europe in April 2011 with the introduction of its revolutionary EVOLTA batteries.
Endorsed by the Guinness Book of World Records, EVOLTA is the World’s No.1 long lasting AA alkaline
battery
(1)
. Next to this there is also the rechargeable EVOLTA battery with the highest life cycle
(2)
(up to 1600 cycles), meaning the new range helps to increase energy efficiency and saves resources.
With these unbeatable features, the EVOLTA batteries and Mr Evolta – the record-breaking robot created to
show everyone the world-beating power of EVOLTA Alkaline AA batteries – lead the entire Panasonic range.
PANASONIC‘S ENVIRONMENTAL MISSION
(1) GWR certified on Jan. 15th, 2008 and re-certified on Dec. 1st, 2010 following IEC standards averaged across seven test modes. Actual performance may vary depending on use.
(2) 20% longer lasting (vs. Panasonic Alkaline Standard Power Silver 2010 – based on average PI of IEC internal testing).
(3) Internal Panasonic testing according to JIS/IEC – status December 2010
Alkaline factory in Belgium
As well as producing better performing products, Panasonic’s commitment to the environment is put into action through a series of initiatives:
Green Life Innovations offer products to people which can enrich their lives in a sustainable way.
We aim to manufacture environmentally friendly products that use resources efficiently and are the result of careful technical
management.
We believe that better informed consumers are key to improving sustainability. Our Eco Ideas label puts the spotlight on green
product features so that everyone can make more environmentally-friendly buying decisions.
For EVOLTA primary alkaline batteries the label highlights how higher energy efficiency means less batteries needed, which
helps to preserve resources
(2)
.
For EVOLTA rechargeable batteries it points out how a battery with more charging cycles at high capacity gives higher energy
efficiency and leads to less product disposal
(3)
. In this case it means that the Rechargable Evolta reaches up to 30% more cycle
life vs previous Panasonic Infinium.
Green Business Innovations focus on improving the sustainability of our business
processes and operations.
We have exceeded strict CO
2
emission reduction targets and are now accelerating
recycling plans in all our manufacturing processes.
For our battery products we already implemented initiatives such as:
• recycled material for outer cartons (100%)
• recycled material blister cards (90%)
From 01/01/2011, our alkaline factory in Belgium reached a 0% waste ratio which means that
all leftover materials from production can either be recycled or reused and will certainly not go
to landfill.
