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 many recyclable parts from used
plastics and is painted using water-based paints
and, in part, recycled paints. 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 in order
to ensure high-quality recycling
when the set is put out of use –
all larger plastic parts are marked. To optimize reusability,
this TV set has been constructed in such a way as to make
disassembly very easy.
