Preface
What We Do to Protect the Environment
Your new computer system is implemented following some principles aimed to reduce risks
and harm to the environment, considering the impact that products can have during their life
cycle: production, transport, installation, use at customer site and disposal at end of life.
• Only materials free from dangerous or polluting additives are used (e.g. polybrominated
free material)
• All plastic parts are marked in order to correctly address the recycling operations
•
The unit is designed taking into account the requirements for disassembly, largest parts
are made of homogeneous material to facilitate recycling and, where possible,
sub-assemblies are designed to be reused
•
Packing is designed with the intent to reduce environmental impacts
•
The unit itself does not produce polluting or dangerous emissions (lubricant, solvent, or
other dangerous/polluting substances are not present in the unit)
• Production processes use water-based materials (e.g. paint); for electronic
sub-assemblies, either hydro-soluble fluxes (Freon free) or no clean processes are used.
