TCO'95
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.
