In Europe, therefore, Technicolor continues to support voluntary EU industry initiatives such as the Industry VA for Complex set top boxes, the Code of Conduct (CoC) for Digital TV and the CoC for Broadband equipment. Technicolor has actively contributed to new or revision of eco-design regulation by providing inputs to the EU commission, via its membership of the Digital Europe organization of leading Digital Technology European companies. The scope of Technicolor contributions and monitoring are extended beyond energy efficiency such as Reusability/Recyclability/Recoverability (RRR), and planned obsolescence. In 2014 and 2015, Technicolor has provided key contributions to the EU eco-design work plan 2015-2017, the revision of 278/2009 on External Power Supply, the revision of 1275/2008 and 801/2013 regulation on standby and network standby, the CoC for Broadband Equipment version 6 (CoC BBV6), and to VIA for STB Version 4 ( VIA V4), which are all impacting significantly the design, development, and cost of Technicolor GW and STB. In the Americas, in Australia, in Asia, in Africa, and in the same manner, Technicolor monitors and follows environmental regulations and standards. In the United States for example, Technicolor follows the Department of Energy proposed amendment on external power suppliers and rulemaking initiatives on efficiency standards for Set-Top Box and Network Equipment, including planned obsolescence. For a number of years, most of Connected Home STB models marketed in U.S. met the Energy-Star STB energy efficiency levels. In Australia, Technicolor is an Associate Member of the Subscription Television Industry Voluntary Code for improving the energy efficiency of conditional access Set-Top Box. Compliance methods and actions are in place with regard to the RoHS, and WEEE European directives, and the REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals) European regulation, or similar legislation in regions other than EU Member States, dealing with the Restriction on the use of Hazardous Substances within products and systems, and preparing for better end-of-life handling of Electrical and Electronic Equipment Waste.
Product Design and Life Cycle Assessment [G4-EN7] [G4-EN27] [G4-DMA Products and services] GRI
As a leading supplier of Set-Top Box (STBs) and Home Gateways, Technicolor has acquired experience and decided to incorporate Ecodesign principles and methodology into its main new products families. Rigorous product environmental performance analysis is used to measure the impact of innovations and to target key areas of focus. Specific ecodesign studies have been completed on many aspects of core product design ( e.g ., energy consumption, electronic cards and components, casing and cable materials, accessories, etc.) as well as on related elements including packaging and transportation. To support eco-design, Technicolor uses the most recent version of a Life-Cycle Analysis Tool (EIME V5) to measure the environmental impacts of a product over its entire life ( i.e. , from cradle to grave). Key Product Environmental and Safety Requirements Compliance [G4-EN7] [G4-EN27] [G4-PR1] [G4-PR3] [G4-DMA Products and services] [G4-DMA Compliance] [G4-DMA Public policy] GRI Technicolor operates in a worldwide market and thus has to deal with a wide variety of national and regional initiatives governing the environmental performance and risk management associated with its products. In particular, energy consumption, which is the main significant environmental impact for our products remains a key priority across the industry and regions.
