Notes on the environment by
Grundig
Technology and ecology combine into a convincing
overall concept with this TV set. Ecologically highquality 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 omitted. 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 recycling 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.
