Fujitsu Computer Systems Corporation is proud that many of its laptop computers comply with the new stricter ENERGY STAR(R) 4.0 guidelines. The new guidelines, set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy, are designed to reduce energy consumption and prevent greenhouse gas emissions. Fujitsu has implemented the latest technology, including high-efficiency chip designs from Intel(R), to meet the new guidelines. ENERGY STAR compliance is just one of several Fujitsu initiatives designed to promote energy conservation and reduce environmentally harmful waste. 

“With deep roots in the development and pioneering of unique mobile devices, Fujitsu — by the nature of our business — has always considered energy efficiency to be a design element of our mobile PCs. And as a green company, we strive to minimize the environmental impact of our products throughout their lifecycle,” said Richard McCormack, senior vice president of marketing for Fujitsu Computer Systems. “We recognize that protecting the environment is a corporate obligation and an essential business requirement. We are committed to conserving energy and natural resources, and to taking the reduce-reuse-and-recycle approach to creating eco-friendly products. Fujitsu is also working on ensuring that more of our systems in future will also comply.” 

The new ENERGY STAR 4.0 guidelines require that PCs consume less energy while plugged in or on the go. Join Fujitsu in making a difference with ENERGY STAR. Go to www.energystar.gov for more information. 

Additionally, Fujitsu has several products on the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT) list. EPEAT, operated by the Green Electronics Council (GEC), helps buyers evaluate, compare and select desktop computers, notebooks and monitors based on their environmental attributes. EPEAT also provides a clear and consistent set of performance criteria for the design of products, and provides an opportunity for manufacturers to secure market recognition for efforts to reduce the environmental impact of its products.
