6 Environmental Issues

6.1 TANDBERG's Environmental Policy

• TANDBERG's Research and Development is continuously improving TANDBERG's
products towards less use of environmentally hazardous components and substances as
well as to make the products easier to recycle.
• TANDBERG's products are Video Conferencing Solutions. The idea of Video
Conferencing is to reduce the need for expensive, time demanding and polluting
transport of people. Through people's use of TANDBERG's products, the environment
will benefit from less use of polluting transport.
• TANDBERG's wide use of the concepts of outsourcing makes the company itself a
company with a low rate of emissions and effects on the environment.
• TANDBERG's policy is to make sure our partners produce our products with minimal
influence on the environment and to demand and audit their compatibility according to
applicable agreements and laws (national and international).

6.2 Environmental Considerations

Like other electronic equipment, the TANDBERG Gateway contains components that may have
a detrimental effect on the environment.
• Printed-wiring boards made of plastic, with flame-retardants like Chloride or Bromide.
• Component soldering that contains lead.
• Smaller components containing substances with possible environmental effect.
After the product's end of life cycle, it should be returned to authorized waste handling and
should be treated according to National and International Regulations for waste of electronic
equipment.
