Barco has attained a carbon-neutral rating the ClickShare bar from CO2logic, a South Pole company. This is the second ClickShare product to receive the carbon-neutral label, after the ClickShare Conference CX-50 2nd generation.

ClickShare Bar range takes sustainability endeavours a step further with the carbon-neutral certification, which implies the remaining amount of CO2 is offset to guarantee real climate action.

The ClickShare Bar contains 35% next-life, recycled plastics with packaging made of 86% recycled and 98% recyclable materials. With packaging completely re-used for shipments to and from main suppliers, there is 100% waste reduction between suppliers.

The bar’s power savings outperform the strictest Extended Producer Responsibility legislation requirements for standby mode by two times. In addition, it is 30% more energy efficient than competition in BYOD mode. Also available is Barco’s efficient waste management and recycling commitment with ClickShare’s Trade-in program.

“We recognise businesses must fundamentally reassess their environmental footprint. ClickShare takes a proactive, innovative approach and helps customers achieve their carbon-neutral targets for a greener future in the meeting room,” Barco meeting experience executive vice president Jan van Houtte says.

“With the first carbon-neutral video bar for wireless conferencing, we solidify our position as a green pioneer in the collaboration market.”

The ClickShare Bar emits 299.2kg of CO2 in a five-year lifecycle. That same 299.2kg of CO2 is neutralised in the Huadu Afforestation project by planting 2.4 trees per ClickShare Bar.
