Holistic eco-design
As a leader in sustainability, Philips continuously strives to make it simple for consumers to reduce their impact on the environment, particularly in the areas of lowering energy consumption, reducing material usage in production and packaging, reducing the use of hazardous substances, and improving recyclability. In line with this holistic approach, Philips Econova ECO Smart LED TV represents the next step in eco-design.

The Philips Econova ECO Smart LED TV has been awarded an A++ Energy Label due to its extremely low power consumption. This is obtained through the use of a high efficiency side-lit LED display, increased glass transitivity, and state of the art dynamic dimming video algorithms which optimize the intensity of the backlight. So when power is not needed it is not used. This enhances both the picture performance as well as optimizing the power consumption.

*Philips Econova ECO Smart LED TV uses 60%¹ less energy compared to LCD TVs, thanks to the latest LED lighting technology.

*With Philips Econova ECO Smart LED TV, off is really off. The unique Zero power switch means that when you switch your TV off, power consumption is reduced to zero watt.

*Philips Econova ECO Smart LED TV is made from previously discarded and easy to recycle materials.
Reducing material waste even further, Philips Econova ECO Smart LED TV comes with the unique Philips 2-in-1 stand which can be used as a table top stand as well as an easy to install wallmount bracket, bringing convenience to consumers and eliminating unnecessary waste from discarded parts.

*Its solar powered remote control reduces the impact on the environment even further, removing the need to replace or dispose batteries.

*Philips Econova ECO Smart LED TV has also made further steps in reducing its use of hazardous materials. It is PVC and BFR (Brominated Flame Retardant) free and moreover, is designed for easy recycling. Its packaging contains neither polystyrene buffers nor plastic bags, making it 100% recyclable.
