Ten of Company’s Multifunction Products Attain Exclusive EPEAT Gold Rating for Electronics
Toshiba America Business Solutions, Inc. is pleased to announce that 10 of its e-STUDIO multifunction products (MFPs) have secured the top global environmental standard for electronics, the EPEAT Gold rating. EPEAT’s Gold rating represents the world’s most elite standard for greener electronics, with Silver and Bronze being the other levels established by the Green Electronics Council, the Oregon organization managing the ratings system. EPEAT is the definitive global rating system for greener electronics.
Thirty-nine of Toshiba’s industry-recognized e-STUDIO products now meet EPEAT’s top two environmental standards (Gold and Silver). The EPEAT rating system evaluates an electronic product’s environmental standing in areas such as recyclability, the reduction/elimination of toxic materials, energy conservation, packaging and consumables. Products attain a Bronze rating by meeting more than two dozen required criteria. Devices that earn a Silver or Gold rating have met an additional number of optional criteria.
