Approximately 50 percent of all display models manufactured in the world are TCO-labeled.
Displays are assessed in the areas of ergonomics, emissions, energy, and ecology.
TCO-labeling of CRT-displays guarantees:
Ergonomics
- High visual ergonomic requirements for displays, which entails high image quality and excellent color reproduction.
- Option to regulate display angle (new in TCO'03 Displays).
Emissions
- Considerable reduction of magnetic and electrical fields.
- Minimized electrostatic fields.
Energy
- Low energy consumption for reduced environmental impact.
- The energy saving function provides a better indoor climate through reduced heat emission, which results in retained air humidity.
Ecology
- The manufacturer shall be certified according to ISO 14001 / EMAS.
- Reduced emission of brominated and chlorinated flame-retardants and heavy metals into the environment (Complies with the RoHS directive from 1 July 2006).
- Recycling preparations facilitate material recycling.
- Information on where the displays can be turned in for recycling.
