Barco ClickShare reaffirms commitment to climate action with the carbon-neutral certification for the ClickShare Bar range
Kortrijk, Belgium, 14 May 2024 – Barco, a global leader in meeting room technology, announces it has taken a significant next step in ClickShare’s path towards a full carbon-neutral offering for meeting collaboration. The ClickShare Bar has been granted the carbon-neutral label by leading climate advisory organization CO2logic, a South Pole company and is the second ClickShare product to receive the carbon-neutral label, after the ClickShare Conference CX-50 2nd generation. With this recognition, Barco reinforces its commitment to design with sustainability in mind, as the ClickShare Bar is the first carbon-neutral video bar for wireless conferencing on the market.
86% of IT managers indicate sustainability practices are crucial to achieve their business goals, according to a recent survey by analyst firm Frost & Sullivan. ClickShare helps customers to equip meeting rooms with reliable technology and achieve sustainability goals at the same time.
Reducing the environmental footprint of its products has always been part of Barco’s DNA. The Barco Eco scoring is a transparent methodology to grade its products' ecodesign performance based on material use, energy efficiency, packaging and logistics, and end-of-life. Throughout the entire product lifecycle of the ClickShare devices, Barco substantially reduces CO2 emissions and optimizes resources use.
ClickShare takes its sustainability endeavors a step further with the carbon-neutral certification for the ClickShare Bar range, which implies the remaining amount of CO2 is neutralized.
- The ClickShare Bar contains 35% recycled plastics.
- The cardboard packaging is made of 86% recycled and 98% recyclable materials.
- Drastic waste reduction between suppliers: packaging is re-used as much as possible for shipments to and from main suppliers.
