Irvine-based Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America Inc. (MDEA) announced Tuesday that it is joining the Electronic Manufacturers Recycling Management Company's (MRM) national recycling initiative as part of its ongoing environmental efforts.
Effective immediately, all MDEA TVs can be recycled at no charge to the consumer through MRM's growing infrastructure of drop-off locations throughout the U.S.
"MRM is immensely pleased to welcome Mitsubishi to the growing family of manufacturers seeking to provide environmentally responsible recycling opportunities to customers in all 50 states," says David Thompson, president of MRM. "With the popularity of new television technologies, we are seeing a tremendous need for recycling televisions and we applaud Mitsubishi for its efforts to help the environment and make recycling easier for consumers."
