Are Spansion products “Green”?
There is no standard definition for “green” in regards to the environmental impact of a product. A ‘Green product’ is a marketing term used by some groups and companies to indicate whether or not materials they have targeted are present in their products. It is also used to describe products and their impact compared to a previous or competitor’s products. All Spansion products are designed to be energy efficient and where possible, use non-restricted or low-impact materials. But since different criteria is used to differentiate customer products, Spansion cannot declare in advance whether or not Spansion products meet a specific group’s definition of green. We do report all of the materials present in our products, and list these reports by package type (click here). Customers can examine this data to determine if it meets their criteria.
