Conserving energy is a fundamental value of Lanier Worldwide, Inc.
Many products in the Lanier solutions portfolio have been awarded the Energy Star®.
Sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Energy Star promotes
energy efficiency in office equipment. Lanier systems are engineered to conserve
electric power, paper, and other consumable supplies. Products that earn the Energy
Star prevent greenhouse emissions by meeting strict energy efficiency guidelines
set by the U.S. EPA and the U.S. Department of Energy.
Energy Star-qualified high-speed copiers feature duplexing units that automatically
make double-sided copies, reduces paper costs by about $60 a month. Using less paper
also saves energy because it takes 10 times more energy to manufacture a piece of
paper than it does to copy an image onto it. Spending a large portion of time in
low-power mode not only saves energy, but helps copy equipment run cooler and last
longer.
Office equipment is generally turned on 24 hours a day, so power management features
are important for saving energy and are an easy way to reduce air pollution. Energy
Star has helped businesses and consumers save an estimated $50 billion in energy
costs and has prevented more than 150 million metric tons of pollution.
