包装材料的环保考虑

Wacom 产品包装和说明书使用的纸板，均是经过 FSC 认证的纸张。FSC 认证是一种国际认证体系，通过这个认证机制可以评估和认证森林是否在考虑环境和当地社区之下获得妥善管理，并证明纸张产自符合标准的森林。Wacom 希望通过积极使用 FSC 认证纸张，对防止非法滥伐和可持续森林管理有所贡献。如欲了解我们如何使用 FSC 认证纸张作为包装材料，请点击这里查看。

在无法运用 FSC 认证纸张的部分，我们会使用棉质材料，例如用来包装产品，避免电源适配器、压感笔以及压感笔盒上出现刮痕，这些材料都是由萃取自植物的聚乳酸 (PLA)* 制成。

同样，我们也在包装上选用多种环保材料，且尽量避免使用石油基塑料。

* 聚乳酸 (PLA) 是一种生物塑料，使用玉米和甘蔗等植物的淀粉和糖制成，一般认为即使废弃掩埋在土壤中，也会在微生物的作用下，分解成水和二氧化碳。

Environmental friendly printing

Soybean oil ink* is used for all printing on packaging and product manuals as much as possible, including the individual packaging of the main unit. Flexographic printing** is used for the packaging of the stands.

*Soybean oil ink is biodegradable and emits less VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) than inks using petroleum-based solvents, contributing to a better environment.

**Flexographic printing uses less ink, which in turn reduces the energy used to dry the ink, thus reducing CO2 emissions. It is also considered being an environment-friendly printing method because it can use water-based inks, including soybean oil inks, which emit less VOCs. Offset printing is used only for areas where fine printing is required (e.g. individual packages of the main body).
