Philips incorporates the latest technologies to create products that are good for the environment in
terms of energy consumption as well as material usage. This product is partly made of bioplastics
and recycled plastics. Parts made of bioplastics are environmentally friendly because they have been
derived from renewable biomass sources. Some parts still need to be made of conventional plastics,
but for these parts Philips tries to use recycled plastics as much as possible. This production method
results in considerably less waste than the traditional method. For more information on this and
other environmental efforts of Philips, please visit www.asimpleswitch.com.
The Green Performer's extremely efficient motor yields a high performance at a low power
consumption.
