Social Responsibility at PC Locs
We are dedicated to manufacturing solutions that are socially responsible. Leveraging manufacturing and management processes to find efficiencies wherever possible.
Our Commitment
- Packaging - Globally, we leverage packaging that is 100% recyclable. Our packaging comes from recycled materials, and we work continually to reduce the amount of packaging within our products while still maintaining significant shipping protection.
- Elimination of Toxic Substances - Products comply with all international environmental regulations related to design, manufacture and packaging. Result: 100% RoHS compliance ensures removal of lead, cadmium and other toxic substances from the production stream.
- Recycling - Scrap products are disassembled, and facility trash is sorted for the most efficient recycling possible.
- Future proof designs reduce waste – most products by PC Locs are designed to be universal, are ‘open-concept’ and come with a lifetime warranty. This reduces the need to change charging carts, stations or towers each time you get new devices, thus reducing significant waste. Solutions can be re-purposed for a multitude of uses.
