Abstract

In order to preserve the global environment and to maintain sustainable development, manufac-turers today are expected to build resource-recycling through their businesses, especially by producing environmentally-conscious products and by establishing recycling systems for their used prod-ucts. At NEC we made a commitment in our Environmental Charter, published in 1991, that we would contribute to a sound environment through technology that harmonizes with nature and through production that is environmentally friendly.<BR>Recently we started the NEC self-declared eco-labeling scheme which we named“Eco-Symbol”, to promote our ECP development and to announce our environmental criteria to the public through our Internet homepage.<BR>Special mention should be made of the“Eco-Symbol”scheme and especially the environmentally-conscious PC, which was the first NEC product to be released with the“Eco-Symbol”mark.
