ClickShare´s commitment to climate action
A changing climate caused by unabated carbon emissions is a key challenge of our times, and the consequences looming on the horizon are devastating. Change is in order.
Governments and global organizations alike are taking transformative measures to combat climate change. Barco and ClickShare are no different.
We are enacting real climate action by significantly reducing our carbon footprint and that of our customers, and have taken strides on our way to a better future.
ClickShare is spearheading these efforts by developing performant, carbon-neutral wireless collaboration devices that offer premium hybrid meeting experiences.
Check the facts and discover how ClickShare is working towards a greener future, one meeting room at a time; and why not work together?
How we designed ClickShare for environmental sustainability in the workplace
When working to reduce ClickShare´s carbon footprint, we focused on seven areas that have the highest impact: design, materials, production, packaging, transportation, usage and recycling.
- Design
- Materials
- Production
- Packaging
- Transportation
- Usage
- Recycling
- Sustainability milestones: 2016 to present
Design
Right from the onset, every ClickShare product is designed with environmental responsibility in mind.
Our design process prioritizes not only the functionality and aesthetics of our products but also the environmental impact at every stage of the lifecycle.
Materials
We are meticulous about the materials we use in our products and utilize recycled materials in both our product manufacturing and our informational materials:
- All our product manuals are printed on recycled paper.
- We use 100% non-paint plastic parts. Due to the lack of painting, these plastics emit the least amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), are easier to recycle, and typically consume less energy during manufacturing.
- We use halogen-free PCBs (Printed Circuit Board) which are circuit boards made without brominated or chlorinated compounds. Not using these means reduced toxic emissions, safer disposal, and better regulation compliance as such substances are slowly being banned.
- All our products incorporate recycled materials; in our case PCR plastics (post-consumer resin). This is a plastic made from recycled plastics that can be further recycled.
The ClickShare CX-50 2nd gen incorporates 33% PCR plastic, while the ClickShare Video Bars, along with the ClickShare Conference CX-20 and CX-30, ClickShare Present C-5 and C-10, and the ClickShare Button, include 35% PCR plastic.
Production
We work closely together with manufacturers that undersigned the supplier code of conduct. Each year:
- At least 75% of our production spend is covered by suppliers undersigning Supplier Code of Conduct.
- All new production suppliers are screened on sustainability.
Packaging
We strive to make our packaging as light as possible and use recycled or recyclable materials: cardboard for the product boxes and sugarcane for the product trays. Sugarcane is a fully recyclable material, can be reused several times and it biodegrades in a matter of months.
- ClickShare CX-50 2nd gen: 90% of the cardbard packaging is made of recycled materials, 94% of packaging can be recycled.
- ClickShare Video Bars: 86% of the cardboard packaging is made of recycled materials, 98% of packaging can be recycled.
- Packaging is reused between our suppliers as much as possible which drastically reduces waste at this step.
Transportation
We aim to ship our products as much as possible by sea, followed by trucks and then by plane, which accounts for significantly fewer carbon emissions.
Usage
Our products are optimized to be as energy efficient as possible.
All ClickShare devices not only comply to the strictest EPR legislation (The EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation) requirements for standby mode but further reduce it to half the mandated limit (*Based on power consumption test report from our lab).
For instance, the ClickShare Video Bar range is 30% more energy efficient than competitive products in BYOD mode (according to in-house measurements and comparisons).
Recycling
We take into consideration the end of life of our product from the very beginning, making sure all parts can be easily disassembled, making recycling also easier.
We offer the ClickShare Trade-in Program so you can return your old ClickShare solution in exchange for a significant discount for a new, more sustainable device. No need to worry about recycling, we´ll take care of that!
