This week we celebrated the World Environment Dayand Razer took advantage of the event to present two new mice, the Basilisk V3 and the DeathAdder Essential, evolutions of models well known to gamers, but which here benefit from the certification ECOLOGO of the’UL“world leader in security sciences”.
The certification thus ensures that the products are durable, a first for mice gaming, Razer is well known for its ecological commitment and specifies:
Razer has chosen to submit these mice for certification not only because they are the most sold, but also because they are the most accessible, thus allowing gamers to make more sustainable choices. In order to be able to certify them with the ECOLOGO label, UL examined several sustainability criteria. They assessed the mice for compliance with EU regulations on restricted hazardous chemicals and also assessed them for skin irritation and sensitization. UL further evaluated Razer’s repair and replacement management process, from the ease of disassembly of the product by authorized service providers, to how Razer communicates to service providers which components require selective handling of waste.
Sustainable packaging is another criterion that the mice met: they are placed in packaging made of FSC-certified materials, free of heavy metals and chlorine, and printed with sustainable soy ink, which allows them to be preserved. easily recycle.
Finally, UL also inspected Razer’s facilities to certify that the mice were manufactured in facilities committed to responsible environmental management, as evidenced by ISO 14001 certification.
Kenneth Ng, sustainable development manager at Razercomments:
What better way to celebrate World Environment Day than to share with our community that the very mice that help them win games are also a win for the environment. Unlike other companies claiming to have sustainable products, we go the extra mile to prove to our fans that our products are truly sustainable. Our gaming community can rest assured that their favorite mice have been thoroughly vetted by a trusted scientific organization that studied a comprehensive list of criteria to award us ECOLOGO certification.
Doug Lockard, vice president and general manager of the retail and consumer products group at ULadds:
Through the use of ECOLOGO certification, companies like Razer can demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and a healthier environment with credible third-party certification and review by one of the world’s most trusted eco-labeling programs. . Ecolabels, such as ECOLOGO, UL GREENGUARD, Environmental Product Declarations, or Environmental Claim Validation, can help customers make informed purchasing decisions and select products with desired environmental and sustainability attributes.
Razer not yet talking about price or availability, but mice Basilisk V3 and DeathAdder Essential will be found on his shop.
