Reducing in Resources Used
- Making Full Use of Recycled Resources
Reducing product mass
To reduce the use of resources for production, we continuously look to reduce the weight of our products. In addition to our efforts for downsizing our products by using thinner and lighter materials and parts and less components, we will strengthen our approach to product design for easy recycling from the recycling resources point of view.
Blu-ray disc recorder
The mass of the product has been reduced by about 31% from that of the previous model (DMR-BR570) by downsizing and integrating key devices such as the thin slot-in Blu-ray disc drive, and by simplifying the structure through the reduction of the number of parts used. The model has thereby achieved the world’s smallest size*1 among digital tuner-equipped Blu-ray disc recorders. Also because of its layout-free compact design (installable either horizontally or vertically), the space required for installation has also been reduced.

Main body only, not including the projecting parts. As of November 2010 (surveyed by Panasonic).

Blu-ray disc drives
For optical pickups (laser light source and light-receiving section required for data recording and regeneration) uniquely developed for Blu-ray disc drives (read/write optical disc drives for Blu-ray discs), the main parts are integrated to make the disc drive thinner. Moreover the number of parts used has also been reduced. As a result, we have achieved the industry’s thinnest*2 read/write Blu-ray disc drive (9.5 mm).
