ClickShare has announced that its newest product, the ClickShare Bar, has been designated as the first carbon-neutral video bar for wireless conferencing on the market. The ClickShare Bar has been granted the carbon-neutral label by climate advisory organisation CO2logic, a South Pole company.
Clickshare, a Barco company, says that power savings outperform the strictest Extended Producer Responsibility (ERP) legislation requirements for standby mode by two times. Meanwhile, the ClickShare Bar contains 35% next-life, recycled plastics and packaging is made of 86% recycled and 98% recyclable materials.
The ClickShare Bar emits 299,2 kg of CO2 in a 5-year lifecycle. That same 299,2 kg of CO2 is neutralised in the Huadu Afforestation project by planting 2,4 trees per ClickShare Bar, to transform wasteland into a thriving forest in the Guizhou province, South China.
Further elements include a waste management and recycling commitment with ClickShare’s Trade-in programme.
“We recognise businesses must fundamentally reassess their environmental footprint. ClickShare takes a proactive, innovative approach and helps customers achieve their carbon-neutral targets for a greener future in the meeting room,” said Jan van Houtte, EVP meeting experience, Barco.
“With the first carbon-neutral video bar for wireless conferencing, we solidify our position as green pioneer in the collaboration market.”
