Congratulations!
You have just purchased a TCO’95 or TCO’99 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.
This product meets the requirements for the TCO’95 or TCO’99 scheme which provides for an interna-
tional environmental and quality labelling of personal computers. The labelling 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: environment, ergonomics, usability, reduction of electric
and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical safety.

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 their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority
of electronics equipment, 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
electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and climate-influencing
emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in offices is often left
running continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.

What does the environmenal labelling involve?
The environmental demands has been developed by Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish
Society for Nature Conservation). These 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 where the company implements its
operational policy.
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, 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 requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their purpose
is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can
consist of flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and those flame
retardants are chemically related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retard-
ants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects,
including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative * proc-
esses. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in
foetus development may occur. The relevant TCO´95 and TCO’99 demand require that plastic compo-
nents weighing more than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or
chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.

Cadmium **
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain computer
displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.
TCO’95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm (parts per million) of cad-
mium. The colour-generating layers of display screens must not contain any cadmium.
The relevant TCO’99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating layers of display screens
and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.

Mercury **
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and is
toxic in high doses.
TCO’95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm (parts per million) of mer-
cury. The relevant TCO’99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any mercury.
Both TCO´95 and TCO´99 also demand that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics
components associated with the labelled unit. There is however one exception. Mercury is, for the time
being, permitted in the back light system of flat panel monitors as there today is no commercially available
alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a mercury free alternative is available.

CFCs (freons)
The relevant TCO’95 and TCO’99 requirement state that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during
the manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed
circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing
increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer (malignant
melanoma) as a consequence.

Lead **
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous
system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The relevant TCO’95 and TCO´99 requirement permit
the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.

* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms

** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.
