Emissions from office equipment

The health risks posed by office devices with printing function, such as laser printers, copiers or fax machines, are currently a controversial issue. BAM has developed a test method to determine emissions of e.g. ozone, volatile organic compounds (VOC) or dust from monochrome and colour printers and copiers. Developed as a compliance verification method for the Blue Angel eco-label, this method has now been integrated into an international standard.
