The Green Side of Latitude
Dell's environmental stewardship program drives to conserve product energy consumption,
reduce or eliminate materials for disposal, prolong product life span and provide effective and
convenient equipment recovery solutions. By streamlining business steps and processes, Dell
minimizes stress on the environment while achieving speed, responsiveness and cost savings
that can be passed along to customers.
Product Concept and Design – with Environment in Mind
Dell’s focus on improving environmental performance starts with our Design for the
Environment (DfE) approach. When designing new systems, engineers consider
environmental factors such as material composition of components, amount of materials
used, energy efficiency as well as design attributes that aid in recycling.
