EcoSmart Reflection Laptop Cases launch to Help Canadians Compute with a Conscience
MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, March 22, 2008 - Targus, maker of the world's best-selling laptop carrying cases and accessories, today announced the launch of their environmentally-friendly line of laptop cases - The EcoSmart Reflection - designed to help on-the-go Canadians reduce the size of their carbon footprint.
The four cases in The EcoSmart Reflection line let eco-conscience consumers use their purchasing power to limit their impact on the environment. The line is made from materials that are less toxic to the environment, have nickel-free metal and recyclable plastic hardware and can be returned to Targus for final disposal where all the materials will be separated and recycled.
"The EcoSmart Reflection builds on the success of last year's line of EcoSmart cases, which were only available to corporate and government accounts," said Kendra Hanson, marketing associate for Targus Canada. "Targus recognized that many consumers were also looking for earth-friendly products so we expanded this line to provide more options in the laptop case market."
The EcoSmart Reflection line, which comes with a limited lifetime guarantee, launches at the end of March and can be purchased at Staples, Office Depot and via Targus Canada's website (www.targus.com/ca).
