Nord Swan Ecolabel

Nordic Swan Ecolabel

The Nordic Swan is the official eco label in the Nordic region, endorsing environmental best practice. We proudly received our first Nordic Swan label in 2009 and now many of our products feature the accreditation. The label covers products’ entire life cycle, from creation to repair, upgrade and disposal, alongside key features including product quality. Requirements include low energy consumption in sleep mode and duplex printing to reduce paper consumption is recommended. Low emissions and noise levels are also key requirements. Automatic duplex printing is standard in most of the printers.

Blue Angel

The Blue Angel label recognises products that save resources and protect the climate.

The award criteria for gaining the label are rigorous and assessed by an independent Environmental Label Jury. Products are endorsed for being high quality with a long service life, low energy usage and minimal impact on indoor air quality. Recycling requirements are taken into consideration when thinking about the production methods used.

At Brother, we were the first printer manufacturer to offer Blue Angel certification on inkjet all-in-ones in 2008.
