To us, GREEN means having a fun environment by manufacturing products that are simple and enjoyable to use. We believe that our innovative products can, and should, be functional as well beautiful. ECM strives to offer a practical environment by giving you the freedom to share resources and devices among your computers.
GREEN Energy
ECM actively conserves energy through our technology and innovation. Our upcoming Electra suite of products, reduces energy consumption through effective monitoring and control. By 2010, ECM strives to achieve 100% Energy Star compliance for all our products.
GREEN Manufacturing
ECM’s priority is to use environmentally friendly materials whenever applicable. In our commitment to GREEN, ECM continues to work with industry suppliers to find new ways to restrict the use of environmentally harmful materials in our products. By 2010, all ECM products will be 100% PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and BFR (brominated flame retardant) FREE. As part of our ongoing commitment to GREEN, we will focus our energy to reduce harmful effects on the environment by going above and beyond current environmental compliance standards and regulations. Currently all the ECM products are ROHS and WEEE compliant.
GREEN Recycling
ECM realizes that by adapting our product packaging we can reduce waste and beneficially impact our environment. By 2010 all ECM product packaging will utilize recyclable post-consumer materials and will be biodegradable. When transparent retail packaging is required, we will use biodegradable, vegetable-based plastics. Each package will use paper made of over fifty percent post-consumed materials. ECM will also transition from traditional ink to soy-based ink and utilize an eco-friendly single-piece corrugated cardboard material for product displays instead of recyclable plastic trays.
