Congratulations!
You have just purchased a TCO'95 approved and labelled 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 labelled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling 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 the manufacturing. Since it has not been possible for the
majority of electronics equipment to be recycled in a satisfactory way, 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 conventional electricity
generation have a negative effect on the environment (acidic and climate-influencing emissions,
radioactive waste, etc.), it is vital to conserve energy. Electronics equipment in offices consume
an enormous amount of energy since they are often left running continuously.
What does labelling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'95 scheme which provides for international and
environmental labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint
