Uses recycled plastic
Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Materials
CASIO is advancing the use of PCR plastic (Post-Consumer Recycled plastic) in calculator main bodies.
About PCR plastic
PCR plastic is recycled plastic made from plastic products that consumers have used and disposed of. Using PCR plastic helps reduce waste and virgin plastic usage, thereby reducing the environmental impact of plastic use.
Recycling Flow
New products are created using material that has been sorted → cleaned → crushed → property-enhanced → pelletized from used consumer products (home appliances, electronic devices, etc.) collected from the market.
1. Consumption → 2. Collection → 3. Sorting → 4. Cleaning → 5. Crushing → 6. Property Enhancement → 7. Pelletization → 8. Product Manufacturing

To the finished product
- For black models, PC monitors are mainly used as source materials, while air conditioners and other home appliances are mainly used for white and colored models.
- The percentage of recycled materials refers to the percentage of recycled materials used in total weight of plastic materials.
- The collected products are manufactured according to strict quality standards, and there are no safety concerns with the recycled plastic.
