| Fujitsu Launches Eco Mouse |
|
Fujitsu is a leading provider of ICT-based business solutions for the global marketplace. With approximately 170,000 employees supporting customers in 70 countries, Fujitsu combines a worldwide corps of systems and services experts with highly reliable computing and communications products and advanced microelectronics to deliver added value to customers.
Rather than using the plastics that traditionally make up the shell of a mouse, Fujitsu has replaced the casing with a pair of environmentally-conscious alternatives: Arboform and Biograde.
As alternatives to plastic, the pair of materials are pretty neat. They're designed to be fully biodegradable, come from renewable sources and their manufacturing processes produce far less CO2 than equivalent volumes of plastic. This isn't the first time Fujitsu has taken this approach, either. Last year, the company created the KBPC PX ECO Keyboard, which replaced almost half of the overall plastic with renewable alternatives. The company claims that the move will equate to a saving of around 60,000kg of plastic each year. The M440 isn't just about green credentials, however. Fujitsu has equipped the device with a 1,000dpi optical sensor and a scroll wheel, and while its feature-list might leave gamers cold, there's no denying that it meets all the requirements of a basic mouse.
Fujitsu is also touting that the bio-based material in its new mouse is more elastic than other materials, making the product more ergonomical and comfortable.
The mouse is currently only available in the U.K., Fujitsu operates a product recycling program in Europe, working with electronics refurbishers and recyclers.
