Notes on the environment by
Grundig
Technology and ecology combine into a convincing
overall concept with this TV set. Ecologically high-
quality materials are used exclusively. The housing
contains a high amount of recyclable parts from
used plastics and the surface colours used are
water-based, partly recycled. Wherever possible,
painting of individual housing parts has been omit-
ted. Due to the optimized housing construction,
flame protection materials have been omitted. The
number of plastic types has been reduced through
and through in order to ensure high-quality recy-
cling when the set is put out of use – all larger
plastic parts are marked. For optimum re-use, this
TV set has been constructed in such a way as to
make dismantling very easy.
