Mitsubishi Launches Projector Recycling

Printer-friendly version

Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America has announced a recycling programme for projectors in an effort to lessen its impact on the environment, conserve natural resources and be socially responsible.
 
Customers who purchase a new Mitsubishi projector can access the company's recycling program online. The program is based on a one-to-one replacement rate. For example, if an end-user purchases five new Mitsubishi projectors, they will be eligible to recycle up to five projectors of any size from any manufacturer.
 
Users input information about their new Mitsubishi projector purchase online as well as the projector(s) to be recycled, including manufacturer and model number. Once the purchase is completed, the customer will receive a kit with appropriate recycling shipping information. When the old projector has been shipped by the customer to the recycling center, Mitsubishi takes responsibility for the processing fees for material breakdown and recycling.
 
"Mitsubishi Electric is committed to being as environmentally friendly as possible, and this program is just one of several steps we are taking to be 'green' in every way we can," said James Chan, senior director, product marketing, Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America's Presentation Products Division. "We understand the impact that some high-tech products can have on the environment, and our new recycling program lets us do our part to help keep our planet healthy."
 
"We are all concerned about the environment, and many communities still don't have recycling programs for tech products," added Chan. "Our customers want to be sure that their old projectors are being responsibly disposed of, and we're glad they can rely on us to take care of this important responsibility."
