Foreword

Each year from 1995 to 2000, Bang & Olufsen published a voluntary environmental report stating our impact on the environment over the past year and providing information on the environmental activities we expected to initiate in the coming year. However, in light of the fact that, recently, interest in the companys impact on the environment has largely changed focus from the impact of the factories on the environment to the impact of the products on the environment, Bang & Olufsen has decided to divide its environmental communication into two sections. In "Right down to the finest detail.", which you have in your hands, we would like to tell you what interests our customers and retailers the most, namely the environmental properties of the products. We will give you an insight into how our product development technologists build consideration for the environment into the products. The goal is to give maximum consideration to the environment, taking that into account when the appliance is produced, while it remains in the home of the consumer and when it is eventually disposed of. We call it a lifecycle description and in this issue of "Right down to the finest detail", we describe BeoSound 3200. "Right down to the finest detail" is produced annually and deals with a different product each year. At the same time, we are, of course, continuing to prepare an account of the traditional environmental impact of our factories, such as consumption of raw materials, energy and water as well as quantities of waste and Health & Safety at Work. This statement is available in Danish on request at any time; please contact our environmental department on tel. + 22.
On behalf of the management

Environmental Policy
All human behaviour influences the environment. This also applies to the production and use of our companys products. Bang & Olufsen works continuously on minimising the effects on the environment. Equal weight is given to finding a balance between the needs of the environment and the consideration given to our products: practical qualities, economic value, aesthetic value and a long life span. In this way, Bang & Olufsen endeavours to be among the best in the business. We will openly discuss environmental issues related to the company and publish a yearly environmental report. We wish to be a part of sustainable global development and view our activities within a life cycle perspective. Development (idea, design & construction) A products qualities regarding environmental impact are determined in the product generation process, and the necessary steps are taken to reduce this impact in subsequent phases of the products life cycle. Raw materials We will attempt to avoid selecting environmentally problematic materials. Production We will give cleaner technology a high priority when choosing methods of production and equipment. We place emphasis on consideration of the local environment, as well 6 as on creating a safe and healthy work environment for our employees. We focus here on improving the physical as well as the mental work environment. We will ensure that the suppliers we choose have adopted environmentally appropriate attitudes and policies. We will carry on a continuing dialogue with suppliers regarding the creation of sound environmental conditions in that phase of the products life cycle that they are responsible for. Transport We will demand a great degree of efficiency of our carriers in their use of resources and application of technology in transport units. Use We will aim for problem-free product use in the customers environment, long product life and a low level of energy consumption during the products life span. Disposal We will endeavour to make product parts suitable for recycling. This entails making significant components easily identifiable during disassembly, and thereby making it possible to choose the best method of disposal or recycling.

Environment-friendly design
The BeoSound 3200 is a new audio product by Bang & Olufsen, although the design and parts of the construction are 12 years old. But this doesnt means that environmental work in this design process has stood still for these 12 years. To us, the environment-friendly properties are self-evident, something that we believe the customer takes for granted and expects us to take care of. This is why we strive constantly to create environmental improvements and this is what has happened with this design. When we design new products, we define a number of environmental requirements for the products and even if the product makes use of an old design, the new device must still satisfy these environmental requirements. From the first time the design was launched on the market, right up to the present day, there have been many environmental improvements over the years. To reduce the risk of fire, public authorities demand that certain plastic parts must have fire-retardant properties. For this reason, a so-called flame retardant is added. The flame retardant that we first used has since been replaced by a more environment-friendly flame retardant. There have also been environmental improvements to the standby function. This 7 has been reduced by 40 per cent since the design was first launched. The design has also become easier to dismantle when disposed of, as we have chosen to clip the hard disk into position rather than the traditional method of screwing it into place. We also want to continue to make environmental improvements in future. Even after a product has been launched on the market, work will continue in order to ensure a positive effect on the environment and quality.

Environmental assessment of the BeoSound 3200
All of our products have an impact on the environment through their consumption of raw materials and energy. Most of these environmental effects will be defined as early as the development and design phase, so these phases are crucial in determining the environmental impact throughout the products life cycle. A life cycle assessment is an analysis and an evaluation of a devices expected environmental impact and consumption of resources throughout its service life. The life cycle consists of the extraction of raw material and the production of materials, the manufacturing of the product, its usage, disposal and transport. The environmental assessment of the BeoSound 3200 shows that one characteristic of electronic products is that most of the environmental impact is caused by energy consumption when the device is being used by its owner. During the product development phase we therefore pay close attention to reducing the devices energy consumption. Resource consumption The consumption of raw materials and other materials is evaluated with reference to the expected global supply horizon, i.e. for how many years we can expect to be able to obtain the resources at the current rate of consumption. This means that resources that are only available in limited amounts are given a high weighting, while resources that are in plentiful supply are given a low weighting. Resource consumption is expressed in thousandths of the volume of a resource available to a person and his/her descendants (mPR). Materials that can be recycled when disposed of are not included. Resource consumption for the BeoSound 3200 consists primarily of the metals copper, zinc and lead. Copper and lead are used in printed circuit boards, and zinc for the actual CD unit. These three metals comprise less than 15 per cent of the total weight of the device, but as these metals have a supply horizon of less than 35 years they are given a high weighting. Environmental impact The products environmental impact is evaluated with reference to the objectives defined by the Danish environmental authorities for 2000. This is defined as the products contribution in thousandths compared to the targets defined per person in 2000 (mPEM). The BeoSound 3200 contributes mainly to the greenhouse effect, acidification and various forms of waste. These contributions originate mainly from the usage phase, and are typical for the generation of energy. Radioactive waste originates from the production of electricity in markets where nuclear power is used. An explanation of the various environmental effects may be found in the glossary on page 14.

Quality also means the environment
At Bang & Olufsen we place great emphasis on developing devices of such a high quality that they rarely develop faults. We also design our devices to last for several years. In many homes you will find Bang & Olufsen products that are 20-30 years old and still in full working order. Good quality not only creates satisfied customers, it also has a positive impact on the environment. In the BeoSound 3200 we have succeeded in improving quality once more, despite the fact that there is now an integrated hard disk. The improvement in quality can be measured in fewer repairs under guarantee. Fewer repairs means savings in time and resources for transport and the production of spare parts. When a device breaks down, it must be transported to a dealer. Spare parts must be requisitioned, the module changed and sent in for repair. Both transport and spare parts contribute to the environmental impact and resource consumption. Improving the quality of a device has a positive effect on the environment. If you are unfortunate enough to have your Bang & Olufsen device break down, you dont necessarily have to buy a new one, as we supply spare parts for 12 years after stopping production of the device. 10

Working environment in assembly
As early as the development phase, consideration is given to the working environment needed when the product is to be manufactured and assembled. Many of the decisions made in connection with materials and surface treatment are significant with regard to the working environment. The BeoSound 3200 is produced on the same production line as the BeoSound 3000, which is the same device, but without the hard disk. This production line was built ten years ago. There is some pre-assembly of items prior to final assembly, and there is no facility to vary the working height. However, it is possible to adjust the angle of the tables, so that, for example, screws can be inserted from a comfortable working position, and all parts are delivered via a conveyor belt, so heavy lifting is avoided. During assembly work there is a risk of repetitive strain injury (RSI). RSI is caused by the same movement being made more than twice a minute, and thus burdening the same group of muscles again and again. This is not good for the body. To prevent RSI, all production employees have been trained to work in a number of different assembly functions, so that they can rotate these various functions for a more varied working day. At the daily morning meeting, the employees themselves plan when and how often rotation will take place. The working environment for the assembly of the BeoSound 3200 has been improved this year. The noise level at the packing station has been reduced, as the cardboard boxes are now sealed with an automatic tape machine instead of the traditional, noisy clampers the large stapling machines. We are constantly reviewing the working environment. Among other initiatives, we conduct a systematic annual review of workplaces to identify whether any working environment-related problems have arisen at the facility.

Page 12

Impact in the customers home
Packaging, energy consumption and the evaporation of flame retardants are some of the effects that interest customers. As our products are intended to last for years when in the customers home, we must consider these issues during the development phase. Packaging is often considered a waste of resources and a waste problem, due to its short service life. Packaging can seem large compared to the product, but it is designed in such a way as to protect the product during storage, handling and transport. This way, we avoid having to scrap products as a result of inadequate protection. Packaging is made from environment-friendly materials and can be recycled if taken to a recycling station. The biggest impact that the BeoSound 3200 has on the environment is energy consumption in the customers home. We therefore focus a great deal on minimising power consumption, especially in standby mode. Standby mode is often considered a waste of energy, but it is necessary if the device is to be switched on via remote control. Nor is it possible to operate the product in a link setup if it is switched off at the mains. At present standby consumption for the BeoSound 3200 is so low that it only uses 20 kWh a year when in standby mode for 18 hours a day. Consumption during operation varies, depending on which function you choose to use. Given a typical breakdown between radio, CD and hard disk, the annual estimated power consumption will be 61 kWh; 30 per cent of this is accounted for in standby mode. It has been proven that certain brominated flame retardants may evaporate from plastic parts when the temperature exceeds 30-40 degrees. Many years ago Bang & Olufsen replaced brominated flame retardants with other flame retardants that contain no bromine.

Page 13

Disposal of the BeoSound 3200
The BeoSound 3200 has been designed to provide years of service. But when it eventually has to be disposed of, like any other electrical or electronic equipment, it must be taken to an approved processing station. Here the BeoSound 3200 will be dismantled and divided into product groups such as cables, iron, copper, etc. The materials will be either reused as new materials or incinerated, generating energy that will be used. Even in the development phase, demands are placed on the design of the product to facilitate dismantling of the device and ensure that materials are suitable for recycling. The BeoSound 3200 contains a number of resources that can be reused as new materials when the device is disposed of. The largest part of the BeoSound 3200 consists of printed circuit boards (PCB). These will be sorted together with wires, after which copper and other precious metals are recovered. The plastic components of the BeoSound 3200 are so small that it is not feasible to recycle them. They are instead incinerated, utilising the energy in the plastic. Iron and other metals are sent to metalworking factories, where they are recast as new materials. Finally, the glass is re-smelted and used as plane glass in items such as windows.

BeoLab 8000 BeoLab 8000 stands poised on its cast-iron base as an aesthetic exclamation mark. Making a solid statement about Bang & Olufsens advanced acoustic technology and careful craftsmanship, it challenges assumptions by delivering maximum sound from minimal space. A patented protection circuit (Adaptive Bass Linearisation) allows the loudspeaker to play deep bass at normal listening levels and even louder, if desired. Since BeoLab 8000 is magnetically sealed, it is free from the effects of other electrical equipment, and can stand extremely close to a TV without any adverse effects on the picture. Wherever you choose to place it, all you will see is its striking silhouette, because both power cables and connections are enclosed into a single rubber profile. The high polished surface absorbs and reflects its surroundings, and is now available in a range of bold colours, which makes BeoLab 8000 a perfect punctuation to any interior.

BeoLab 4

BeoLab 3
BeoLab 4 Bang & Olufsen brings high performance to a hifi loudspeaker in a shape thats as surprising as its sound. With three identical curved surfaces coming together at a round base, BeoLab 4 resembles a pyramid. Each side is covered with fabric that comes in a wide range of colour choices, allowing you to customise the BeoLab 4 to suit your dcor. In addition to its compact size and shape, BeoLab 4 produces a superior sound quality that will add to any audio experience. Its perfect as a main-room speaker in a traditional stereo setup or in a link-room setup. It can also be featured in a surround-sound setup, or as a competent computer speaker due to its dedicated PC mode. Adding to its placement options is a special switch feature that matches the bass performance to wherever BeoLab 4 is placed in a room on the wall, in a corner or on the floor. BeoLab 4 has a tonal balance and sound pressure you wont find in other speakers of the same size. There are two types of wall holders to ensure a secure fit, as well as a dedicated floor stand. BeoLab 4 can easily sit on a shelf, table or in a bookcase. Wherever you choose to place it, youre choosing the perfect partner for a multitude of audio environments. A superior sound in a surprising size and shape. BeoLab 3 BeoLab 3 is proof that big sound can come from a small-sized loudspeaker. With 250 watts of power, it can fit in any space and fill it with a full-spectrum sound, from deep base to a crystal clear treble. BeoLab 3 benefits from the unique Acoustic Lens Technology, which ensures the equal dispersement of sound in a 180 arc. This provides you with an important extra benefit: almost total freedom of placement without loss of acoustic quality. By limiting sound reflections from the floor and ceiling, the lens also ensures that you obtain a more consistent and precise sound experience. BeoLab 3 is constructed using Bang & Olufsens own ICEpower amplifiers. These allow us to greatly reduce overall size, as almost all the power is converted into sound. With little excess heat, there is no need for the cooling space thats often necessary with traditional loudspeaker construction. Made out of solid aluminium, and now available in a range of colours, BeoLab 3 can sit casually on its solid rubber base on a shelf, table, or be connected to your computer. It can also be placed on a wall or on its floor stand. Its a contradiction in size versus sound that will be a welcome addition to any room.

BeoLab 4000

BeoLab 2
BeoLab 4000 Just because space is limited, that doesnt mean the sound has to be, the soft curved leaf-like shape of BeoLab 4000 is not only attractive, its also an intelligent industrial design. Combined with the special ribbed construction at the back, it allows air to enter and excess heat to escapane. This explains why BeoLab 4000 can fit into the narrowest space in a bookshelf, hang vertically or horizontally on a wall or ceiling, or stand upright on a floor stand. The design of BeoLab 4000 allows it to be constructed using a single piece of aluminium, which eliminates any dissonance or distortion from sharp corners.
But its versatility goes beyond its placement. BeoLab 4000 is the perfect partner for your music system, surround sound setup or as elegant multimedia speakers for your computer. BeoLab 4000 comes in six striking colours to choose from and provides a superior sound, even when space is limited. BeoLab 2 BeoLab 2 adds a dimension often missing from sound experiences: an intense deep bass sensation. The 850 watts of ICEpower amplification brings a dramatic touch to your music system or surround sound set-up. ICEpower is the key to producing a sound performance previously impossible from a subwoofer this size. BeoLab 2s rounded shape isnt an incidental design decision. The lack of sharp corners and edges reduces noise diffractions and reflections. Whether its standing in the corner or out in the open, manual filters can be selected to adapt the bass level accordingly. Ensuring a constant optimal sound of cinematic proportions a sound effect you hear and feel.

BeoLab 1

BeoLab 6000
BeoLab 1 Impressive as a sculpture and for its incredible sound, BeoLab 1 is a pillar of strength. A range of sophisticated sound technologies, including the first use of ICEpower amplification, are just some of the reasons behind its ability to make nuances in sound much more noticeable. Its construction from a single piece of aluminium means dissonance caused by seams or corners is eliminated. The cabinet is divided into three individually-sealed units using vibrationdampening materials normally only seen in the car industry. This, together with BeoLab 1s performance power, accounts for a clear and pure sound at any level. Its a loudspeaker people look up to, in more ways than one. BeoLab 6000 Theres nothing loud about the way this loudspeaker looks. Thats because BeoLab 6000 was created to be perceived as a thin line. At 110 cm tall and only 10 cm in diameter, its an inconspicuous column that can easily assimilate into any surrounding. Since no two loudspeaker units have precisely the same physical characteristics, we individually calibrate them to be certain that each BeoLab 6000 that leaves the factory is identical. For optimal sound each time you listen to them, they continuously fine-tune the signal received from the sound source, before distributing it out to the separate bass and treble power amplifiers. With BeoLab 6000, the amplifiers are placed directly into the speaker. This active technology improves the performance and allows the purest of sounds with the simplest of shapes. As a pair, BeoLab 6000 is perfect for a music system, as extra television loudspeakers or as rear speakers in a surround sound set-up. With a full selection of colours to choose from, BeoLab 6000 is a look thats easy to live with.

The new BeoCenter 6 takes intelligent integration to a new level and introduces DAB radio options together with a television for the first time ever. One of the best LCD screens available has been further improved with Bang & Olufsens own VisionClear picture technologies, to ensure the best possible picture in all situations. When BeoCenter 6 is switched on, these picture-optimising technologies adjust the image automatically in relation to light conditions in the room. Within seconds, the television automatically adjusts contrast levels, brilliance and colour to match the current light conditions and will carry on doing so until the television is switched off again. BeoCenter 6 can function as a stand-alone television, or as the second-room television in a BeoLink setup. In the latter case, you can enjoy all sources from the main room on the BeoCenter 6, such as DVD, digital music, etc. BeoCenter 6 can be used as an audio link master that lets you access the radio function from other rooms, if linked to a pair of BeoLab speakers. Four placement options help BeoCenter 6 fit in, even in the smallest of spaces. The motorised turning function on the floor and table stand is controlled from the Beo4 remote control, and turns the television 35 to each side. In addition to this, the tilt mechanism means easy control of the television 13 up and down on a vertical axis. The widescreen and high-definition ready LCD monitor is available in 23 and 26 versions. The integration of picture and sound in the compact cabinet creates a simple and elegant plug-and-play television concept. Connections for earphones, external entertainment sources, and BeoLab loudspeakers, are combined with digital interface for computers (DVI) - making the BeoCenter 6 the perfect companion for both work and entertainment. When the FM radio, which is standard in the 23 version and optional in the 26 version, or the DAB radio feature, which is optional in both, is switched on, available radio text information rolls across the screen. A factory fitted wake-up timer supports the radio functionality still further. BeoCenter 6-23 utilises a compact one-way loudspeaker system, and BeoCenter 6-26 a two-way system, slightly more powerful to match the larger screen size and longer viewing and listening distances. The digital surround sound module available for BeoCenter 6-26 provides a digital surround sound experience in any setup with BeoLab loudspeakers. The televisions loudspeakers will in this setup function as a powerful centre speaker.
