Up to 43% higher energy efficiency than predecessors
The biggest factor contributing to the Nio Color 2MP and 3MP monitors’ fantastic score is their high energy efficiency. The 2MP and 3MP displays’ power saving capabilities have been significantly optimized, making them respectively score 43% and 29% better than their predecessors.
84% recycled cardboard packaging
The Nio Color 2MP and 3MP’s packaging logistics have also been optimized. Boxes contain only country-specific power cords and the cardboard consists of 84% recycled materials. On top of that, the package weight is kept to a minimum, which allows for more transport flexibility.
Zero painted housing
Plastics that are painted often hinder recycling processes, because of the chemicals they contain. The Nio Color 2MP and 3MP displays’ housings are completely unpainted, making it easier to recycle these parts after the display has reached its end of life. Additionally, the displays have also been optimized to facilitate easy disassembling.
It’s a Barco display: long lifetime guaranteed
Of course, on top of the Nio Color 2MP and 3MP displays’ excellent ecoscore also comes the usual Barco promise: our industry-leading 5-year warranty, whereby we guarantee 20,000 consistent backlight hours. On top of that, spare parts for these models will remain available in our repair center until no less than 7 years after the monitors’ end-of-life dates.
Gradually making our product portfolio greener
The Coronis Fusion 4MP and 6MP radiology displays were the first Barco medical displays to receive an A ecoscore in 2019. They were followed by the MDPC-8127 display for digital pathology and Nio Fusion 12MP monitor in 2021, which both received A+ ratings. We are happy that our newest Nio Color 2MP and 3MP displays now crown the list with an A++ label.
