TCO ‘99 Requirements
What does the environmental labeling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO ‘99 scheme which
provides for an international and environmental labeling of
personal computers. The labeling scheme was developed as a
joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional
Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society
for Nature Conservation), Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish
National Energy Administration), and SEMKO AB.
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environmental,
ergonomic, usability, reduction of electric and magnetic fields,
energy consumption, and electrical safety.
The environmental demands impose 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 policy which
must be adhered to in each country/region where the company
implements its operational policy.
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer
and/or monitor, 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.
Below, you will find a brief summary of the environmental
requirements met by this product. The complete environmental
criteria document may be ordered from:
