reduce, recycle
a first for a lacie product, lacie mobile drive is made from post-consumer recycled materials or ’pcr’ – the items that consumers throw in the recycle bin every day, like aluminium cans and plastic bottles.
mobile drive uses aluminium with a 50% ’post-consumer recycled’ content, the product’s frame contains 35% pcr recycled abs – recycled plastic – and these materials can be recycled again.
these figures are only the beginning of an ongoing commitment to sustainable manufacturing.
recycled materials, fresh ideas.
