Philips establishes technically and economically viable objectives to optimize the environmental
performance of the organization's product, service and activities.

From the planning, design and production stages, Philips emphasizes the important of making products
that can easily be recycled. At Philips, end-of-life management primarily entails participation in national
take-back initiatives and recycling programs whenever possible, preferably in cooperation with
competitors.

There is currently a system of recycling up and running in the European countries, such as The
Netherlands, Belgium, Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

In U.S.A., Philips Consumer Electronics North America has contributed funds for the Electronic
Industries Alliance (EIA) Electronics Recycling Project and state recycling initiatives for end-of-life
electronics products from household sources. In addition, the Northeast Recycling Council (NERC) - a
multi-state non-profit organization focused on promoting recycling market development - plans to
implement a recycling program.

In Asia Pacific, Taiwan, the products can be taken back by Environment Protection Administration (EPA)
to follow the IT product recycling management process, detail can be found in web site
