Overview

OMRON designates products that have met environmental targets through product assessment as 'Eco-products'. Products that satisfy even higher standards of environmental impact reduction are certified as 'Eco-label products'.

In fiscal 2006, OMRON revised the Eco-label certification criteria to cover the contribution to energy and resource conservation on the user side. Specifically, more detailed definitions of assessment items were given for products directly aimed at environmental contribution and examples of such products were specified. The new criteria were also made to apply to systems and software products as well.

In fiscal 2007, OMRON plans to set a new Eco-label product ratio target based on the revised criteria, and promote further efforts to create Eco-products.
