ECO Flower Over the last 10 years we have worked hard to lower our environmental impact and will continue to do so. Our eco-design process aims to create Philips televisions that are increasingly eco-friendly and that have significantly less impact on the environment. Philips has been awarded the EU ECO label (the flower) on the majority of its models because of the televisions' high energy efficiency, ultra low standby powers (up to 50% less than the required EU ECO label level), absence of hazardous substances (e.g. lead) and that Philips has designed televisions that can be easily recycled.
