The Acer Aspire Vero laptop takes recycled plastic seriously

Thursday May 27, 2021. 03:45 PM , from PC World
The Acer Aspire Vero is a laptop with a different kind of mission—an environmental one. Sure, it sports some of the latest PC hardware, but what Acer really wants you to know is how much PCR (post-consumer recycled) plastic is used, inside and out.Announced Thursday at the virtual next@Acer event, the Aspire Vero does not have set pricing or availability yet. Whenever it comes to market, it will offer the following distinctively Earth-friendly features: 
Key caps made from 50-percent PCR plastic
Chassis made from 30-percent PCR plastic, with no paint
A box made from 80-percent to 85-percent recycled paper pulp
A paper, instead of plastic, sleeve to protect the AC adapter
A design for easy disassembly, with standardized, readily accessible screws
