EIZO Releases Eco-Conscious 27-inch Monitor with USB Type-C

EIZO Corporation today announced the release of the FlexScan EV2720S – a 27-inch, WQHD (2560 x 1440) resolution monitor equipped with USB Type-C® connectivity for streamlined hot desking and remote office work. It is the successor model to the FlexScan EV2781, offering enhanced energy efficiency and compliance with the latest global environmental standards.

With sustainability gaining more significance in the modern landscape, organizations are urged to make well-informed decisions when procuring new technology. The EV2720S consumes just 14 watts of power, representing a 22% reduction from the previous model. This substantial decrease helps users to lower energy costs and contributes to a smaller carbon footprint, supporting sustainability efforts.

Compared to its predecessor, the EV2720S features an improved contrast ratio of 1500:1, up from 1000:1, for crisp and clear display. The monitor offers a resolution of 2560 x 1440 across a spacious 27-inch screen, providing 1.8 times more screen space than conventional Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels). This expanded workspace allows users to comfortably display multiple windows simultaneously, reducing the need for frequent switching and scrolling.

As modern workstyles continue to diversify, the need for versatile and adaptable technology becomes increasingly important. The EV2720S features USB Type-C connectivity that allows users to connect their laptop with a single, multi-purpose cable. This convenient connection not only transmits video signals, but also provides access to the monitor’s four-port USB hub for peripherals and supplies up to 70 watts of power to charge a device. This makes it faster and easier to connect when moving between workstations or when working remotely, supporting efficiency and productivity no matter the environment.

Contributing to a more sustainable future remains an important goal for both businesses and consumers who are looking to manufacturers to carry out environmentally conscious initiatives. The EV2720S is certified by comprehensive global sustainability standards, including TCO Certified, generation 10 and the ENERGY STAR® label. It has also achieved the highest tier of EPEAT Gold and the EPEAT Climate+ designation, further highlighting EIZO’s commitment to sustainability. ¹

The majority of the monitor’s housing is made from recycled plastic, promoting the reduction of plastic waste, conservation of resources, and reuse of materials. Its packaging and cushioning are also made from recycled materials to minimize environmental impact. 

EIZO offers corporate customers a collective packaging option to support their sustainability goals. Four monitors are packaged in a single box, while the stands are packaged separately or can be excluded upon request. This approach minimizes waste, improves loading efficiency during shipping, and streamlines unpacking and installation time.

Future-Leading Sustainability

Sustainability leaders in organisations worldwide must make informed decisions when procuring technology that will help them meet their sustainability goals. With a typical power consumption of just 6 watts, the FLT can make an immediate positive impact on energy usage associated energy costs.

The FlexScan FLT achieved TCO Certified Generation 10, the highest tier of EPEAT Gold and the EPEAT Climate+ designation, reinforcing its environmental advantages.

Its housing incorporates 95% recycled plastic, promoting the reduction of plastic waste, conservation of resources, and reuse of materials. The monitor’s packaging and cushioning are also made from recycled materials to minimise environmental impact. Optimised packaging size allows for increased loading efficiency by approximately 50% and a decrease in GHG (Greenhouse Gas) emissions during transport by up to 42%. Corporate customers have options for collective packaging, with or without desk stands, to further reduce overall waste and streamline installation time.

From the procurement and manufacturing to shipping and usage, the GHG emissions throughout the entire product lifecycle of the FLT have been reduced by approximately 32% compared to a previous 23.8-inch monitor.

 

Future-Leading Workstyle

As modern workstyles diversify, workspaces must evolve to empower individuals to work efficiently, creatively, and comfortably. The FLT features USB Type-C ports for a single-cable connection to a laptop, enabling video display, USB signal transmission, and a maximum of 60 watts of power supply to a connected PC. The FlexScan FLT is also the first EIZO monitor to support power supply from external devices via USB Type-C, allowing it to operate without the need for an AC adapter.

The FlexScan FLT’s Auto EcoView function automatically adjusts the screen brightness based on ambient lighting changes, while the EcoView Optimizer 2 function fine-tunes brightness and gain according to displayed content. Together, these technologies enhance viewing comfort and minimise power consumption. The monitors new Eco Mode preset automatically activates both functions for easy access.

Users can view the power consumption of the FLT and connected devices, including the PC, in real time through the OSD, promoting eco-consciousness. Additionally, they can choose to display this information statically at the edge of the screen for quick, at-a-glance reference.
