Recycled Plastic Laptops

The Acer Aspire Vero Laptop Incorporates Recycled Components

— May 27, 2021 — Tech
The Acer Aspire Vero laptop has been announced by the brand to offer consumers a powerful piece of computing equipment that is part of its continued shift towards more eco-focused benefits.

The laptop itself makes use of post-consumer recycled plastic across the chassis and the keyboard keycaps, and doesn't feature any paint on the body of the unit to further enable recycling after use. The laptop will ship in a box that is made using at least 80% recycled paper pulp and comes in a paper sleeve instead of a plastic one with soy ink used for graphics printed on the box.

The Acer Aspire Vero laptop is well-equipped from a specifications standpoint with an 11th-generation Intel Core processor along with Iris Xe graphics and more.
