Innovative and Sustainable Solutions
ViewSonic excels in creating energy-efficient products, especially its ViewBoard interactive displays and presentation displays, which lead the market in environmental performance and EPEAT Silver certifications. Further affirming ViewSonic's leadership in energy efficiency, some monitors have earned EPEAT Gold certifications and the ENERGY STAR Most Efficient 2024 designation. The company also pioneers eco-friendly innovation with its lamp-free LED and laser projectors, which significantly reduce environmental impact compared to traditional projectors due to their mercury-free light sources.
As part of its sustainability strategy, ViewSonic promotes environmentally responsible choices among stakeholders and society. To support this, ViewSonic enhances hardware repair accessibility, designs products with easily replaceable components, and collaborates with repair specialists. These efforts, alongside product certifications for environmental and energy efficiency, underscore ViewSonic's dedication to reducing its environmental footprint.
