Environmental aspects
In the development of

loudspeakers we concentrate on innovative solutions to problems, and
solid, well thought-out designs, but these are not our only concerns.
We place equal importance on the maintenance of all German and European safety norms and
standards.
We are able to guarantee that our products are of the highest quality, and meet all our specifications
in full, because we carry out strict quality checking of all materials, employ painstaking production
methods controlled by highly qualified staff, and carry out a fully automatic, computer-controlled final
quality control procedure.
At the earliest stage of development we also emphasise the importance of avoiding environmentally
harmful materials and methods of working.
For example, we avoid the use of materials which are injurious to health, such as chlorine-based
solvents and CFCs.
We also aim to avoid the use of plastics in general, and PVC in particular, in the design of our
products.
Instead we rely upon metals and other non-hazardous materials which are easy to recycle.
The sound-absorbent wadding used in our loudspeakers is made of 100 % polyester fibres, in
conjunction with a binding fibre.
This material has been tested for harmful ingredients to Eco-Tex Standard 100; the same test is
used for clothing, bedclothes, pillows, mattresses, household textiles etc.
The wadding we use has passed the test entitled
'textiles tested for harmful materials' and fulfils
the currently valid humane-ecological requirements. It has even successfully met the very exacting
requirements of the standard test for baby clothing.

Maintenance
If you need to clean your speaker cabinets, simply wipe the surfaces with a soft dry cloth.
Never use powerful cleaning agents or solvents! If necessary, you can clean the front grille with a
vacuum cleaner, but do take care!
Please note that the drive units of some loudspeakers are mounted immediately behind the grille.
Don’t press too hard against the grille with the vacuum cleaner, otherwise you could damage the
delicate speaker chassis.
