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 effort by the TCO (The Swedish
Confederation of Professional Employees), Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation)
and NUTEK (The National Board for Industrial and Technical Development in Sweden). The requirements cover a wide
range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, emission of electrical and magnetic fields, energy consumption
and electrical and fire safety. The environmental demands concern restrictions on the presence and use of heavy
metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The
product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental plan which must be
adhered to in each country where the company implements its operational policy. The energy requirements include a
demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a
lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect of the reduction of electric and
magnetic fields, physical and visual ergonomics and good usability. On the back page of this folder, you will find a brief
summary of the environmental requirements met by this product. The complete environmental criteria document may
