Environmental Issues
Thank you for buying a product which contributes to a reduction in pollution, and thereby helps
save the environment. Our products reduce the need for travel and transport and thereby reduce
pollution. Our products have either none or few consumable parts (chemicals, toner, gas, paper).
Our products are low energy consuming products.
TANDBERG’s Environmental Policy
Environmental stewardship is important to TANDBERG’s culture. As a global company with
strong corporate values, TANDBERG is committed to being an environmental leader and
embracing technologies that help companies, individuals and communities creatively address
environmental challenges.
TANDBERG’s environmental objectives are to:
•Develop products that reduce energy consumption, CO2 emissions, and traffic congestion
•Provide products and services that improve quality of life for our customers
•Produce products that can be recycled or disposed of safely at the end of product life
•Comply with all relevant environmental legislation.
European Environmental Directives
As a manufacturer of electrical and electronic equipment TANDBERG is responsible for
compliance with the requirements in the European Directives 2002/96/EC (WEEE) and
2002/95/EC (RoHS).
The primary aim of the WEEE Directive and RoHS Directive is to reduce the impact of disposal of
electrical and electronic equipment at end-of-life. The WEEE Directive aims to reduce the amount
of WEEE sent for disposal to landfill or incineration by requiring producers to arrange for
collection and recycling. The RoHS Directive bans the use of certain heavy metals and
brominates flame retardants to reduce the environmental impact of WEEE which is land filled or
incinerated.
TANDBERG has implemented necessary process changes to comply with the European RoHS
Directive (2002/95/EC) and the European WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC).
Waste Handling
In order to avoid the dissemination of hazardous substances in our
environment and to diminish the pressure on natural resources, we
encourage you to use the appropriate take-back systems in your area.
Those systems will reuse or recycle most of the materials of your end
of life equipment in a sound way.
TANDBERG products put on the market after August 2005 are
marked with a crossed-out wheelie bin symbol that invites you to use
those take-back systems.
Please contact your local supplier, the regional waste administration or
http://www.tandberg.net/recycling if you need more information on the collection and recycling
system in your area.

Information for Recyclers

information on request for all types of new equipment put on the market in Europe after August
13th 2005.

Digital User Guides
TANDBERG is pleased to announce that we have replaced the printed versions of our User
Guides with a digital CD version. Instead of a range of different user manuals, there is now one
CD – which can be used with all TANDBERG products – in a variety of languages. The
environmental benefits of this are significant. The CDs are recyclable and the savings on paper
are huge. A simple web-based search feature helps you directly access the information you need.
In addition, the TANDBERG video systems now have an intuitive on-screen help function, which
provides a range of useful features and tips. The contents of the CD can still be printed locally,
whenever needed.
