NEC Display Solutions (Chicago, IL) announced its first two products to be awarded the EPEAT Gold rating. The MultiSync LCD175VXM+BK and MultiSync LCD195VX+BK desktop displays meet 80 percent of the optional criteria, fulfilling EPEAT's rigid requirements and furthering NEC's environmental initiatives.

EPEAT (Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool) is a system in which manufacturers declare their products' conformance to a comprehensive set of environmental criteria in eight environmental performance categories.

To earn EPEAT Gold status, an electronic product must meet all required environmental criteria, such as being ENERGY STAR compliant and containing a minimum of 65 percent reusable or recyclable materials, in addition to meeting at least 75 percent of the optional criteria. To obtain a Gold rating, NEC's MultiSync LCD175VXM+BK and MultiSync LCD195VX+BK desktop displays met 80 percent of the optional criteria, fulfilling EPEAT's rigid requirements and furthering NEC's environmental initiatives.

The 17-inch MultiSync LCD175VXM+BK ($249.99) and 19-inch MultiSync LCD195VX+BK ($279.99) are desktop monitors that offer Rapid Response for uninterrupted viewing of high-speed, full-motion video, Ambix digital/analog inputs, enhanced cable management, a height adjustable stand, NaViSet intuitive display settings control and No Touch Auto Adjust.
