What is Philips up to in 2008
I had the chance to put up 2 questions to Philips during the recent CES 2008 in Las Vegas and here are the answers I got. Looks like a lot of manufacturers will be going strong on making their products green for consumers in 2008.
1. What are Philips new “go green” initiatives this year 2008?
• The Eco TV is designed with several power saving features such as a proprietary dimming technology that is designed to lower the LCD panel backlight to reduce power consumption without compromising the picture quality. A built-in light sensor automatically measures the viewing room’s ambient lighting and adjusts the television’s backlight for power efficiency.
• As part of the Philips Design Collection, the Eco TV delivers precision picture quality and definitive style while incorporating lead-free components and flame retardant materials, which are safe to the environment. Furthermore, the packaging box and user manuals are all made of recycled materials.
• The Philips 42PFL5603D is one of several Philips Green Flagship products. Philips Green Flagship products carry the Philips Green logo and have been certified by external auditors that they are more than 10% more efficient than other products on the market within a given product category.
2. What new technology will Philips feature this year 2008? Will any of it revolutionize the industry?
• The Eco TV sets the standard in design and efficiency, giving consumers unmatched picture quality without the hefty power bills.
