The NEC Eco Symbol is part of an in-house hardware labeling system that was established in December 1998 to help promote the development of environmentally sound products and to provide customers with environmental data on products. Only products that meet NEC's highest environmental standards under this system are awarded the Eco Symbol and are registered as the company's most advanced Eco Products.
The Eco Symbol is a self-declaration type of ISO (International Standards Organization) environmental label (Type II). This is a label that is only put on products that satisfy the criteria set by each manufacturer group or other organization for products in specific fields.
From 2010, all software and services that were subject to the Eco Symbol system introduced in FY 2005 became subject to the new Eco Symbol Star system.
The Eco Symbol standards are developed by the Environmental Product Promotion Working Group, which is run by the Environmental Management Promotion Committee. The Environmental Management Promotion Committee is the top deliberative organ for NEC's company-wide environmental strategies and policies.
The Environmental Product Promotion Working Group is made up of representatives from each department, who debate the appropriateness of the criteria as pertaining to each product.
Applications for the Eco Symbol are received, approved, and registered through an in-house web system.
