Acer came up with a broad list of eco-friendly products with the Vero series, including PCs, the Acer Aspire Vero laptop for consumers and the Acer TravelMate Vero laptop for businesses. From PCs to peripherals, Vero products follow eco-friendly criteria such as using post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic and delivering in recyclable packaging. Because sustainability encompasses how a product is built and what happens to it after it is manufactured, Acer’s Vero devices have been engineered to be simple to disassemble, simplifying the process of repairs or upgrades and, as a result, increasing the devices’ lifespans.
The Acer Aspire Vero (AV15-51) is more than simply a gorgeous computer; it’s a visible representation of Acer’s commitment to more environmentally friendly operations. Its chassis is made up of 30% PCR plastic, which reduces CO2 emissions by 21% during the manufacturing process. The Aspire Vero’s award-winning 100 percent recyclable packaging can be repurposed as a DIY laptop holder, and the keycaps contain 50 percent PCR plastic. Following that, a clever design makes it simple to disassemble, repair, update, and recycle the computer or its components, reducing waste. It’s also exceedingly simple to use, given it runs on the recently introduced Windows 11 operating system.
Users can rely on world-class performance and productivity when they need it with the green PC’s 99 percent recyclable 15.6-inch FHD IPS display, which is powered by 11th Gen Intel® Core CPUs with Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics[. When performing less demanding tasks, Acer’s new VeroSense software allows users to choose a usage mode that is optimised for energy efficiency and battery life. Wi-Fi 6, a Type-C USB port, and two Type-A USB ports improve reliability, while Acer TrueHarmony and Acer PurifiedVoice with AI noise reduction enable for crystal-clear conference conversations.
Users interested in going all-green can complete the full eco-friendly Vero set with the Macaron Vero Mouse (AMR020), Vero Mousepad (AMP120 /AMP121) and Vero Sleeve (ABG131 /ABG132).
The Acer TravelMate Vero (TMV15-51) is a green business laptop geared at companies that promote environmentally friendly operations. It has up to an 11th Gen Intel® CoreTM i7 processor[2], 16 GB of DDR4 memory, and a 1 TB SSD, which is more than enough for heavy productivity activities, and security measures back up this capability. A distinct TPM ensures enterprise-level security and manageability, while a Kensington lock slot safeguards sensitive data physically. Acer ProShield Plus, an all-in-one security solution that incorporates features like encryption and decryption and the biometric authentication procedures inherent into Windows 11Pro, is also included with the TravelMate Vero.
Companies can design the startup logo on this edition of the TravelMate Vero, a vital aspect of branding for large and small firms. This is made possible by Acer Commercial BIOS capabilities, which include the ability to lock or rollback the BIOS, update it even on non-Windows platforms, and employ CHIPSEC validation for increased system security.
The TravelMate Vero, which is part of the Vero family of green PCs, has a 30 percent PCR plastic chassis, is meant to be readily fixed or upgraded, and delivers in 100 percent recyclable packaging.
The Acer Veriton Vero Tiny (VVN4690G) is an environmentally friendly mini PC that delivers commercial-grade performance in a compact and customizable tower, providing users with the ideal device for their specific work environment. With fast and stable Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) or Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) and an array of USB and display connectors, including a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port that enables for simultaneous high-speed data transfer and power charging, users have lots of connectivity options. The device will be powered by Intel Core vPro processors of the next generation, and IT workers will be able to administer the device with ease thanks to a specific set of management tools including Acer Office Manager and Acer Control Center, IT staff can smoothly manage their company’s entire fleet of computers.
The Veriton Vero Mini’s ventilated chassis consists of 25% PCR plastic, and the green mini-pc ships in a 100% recyclable box.
The Acer Vero BR277 is a sustainable FHD monitor with a housing constructed of more than 50% PCR plastic and green certifications from ENERGY STAR®, TCO, and EPEAT, demonstrating Acer’s dedication to the environment. The display is also equipped with Acer’s Ergostand, which allows users to tilt, rotate, height-adjust, and pivot the monitor until the ideal viewing angle is attained, as well as Acer’s VisionCare suite of technology, which helps to decrease eye strain. The ComfyView display on the monitor has a non-glare, Flicker-free panel that can be reduced to 15% brightness, significantly dimmer than many monitors on the market, and also leverages Acer’s BlueLightShield™to reduce the amount of blue light that users are exposed to.
As a final touch, the monitor ships in 100% recyclable packaging.
The Earthion platform, the pinnacle of Acer’s more than a decade of sustainability work, brings together the company’s capabilities, supply chain partners, employees, and consumers (channels) to address environmental concerns with innovative solutions. To date, the Acer Group, including its global operations and subsidiaries, has met its 2020 goal of lowering carbon emissions by 60 percent globally. As a RE100 member, Acer is developing plans to acquire renewable energy for all of its energy needs by 2035.
