Dell Products covered by green.

Dell is making some environmental friendly decision. Dell’s new environmental effort is to cover their products with bamboo cushion, which can recycle easily. And their expected savings are more than $8 million, and Dell reports that it is using bamboo because it grows fast, 24 inches per day. Company grows bamboo from China's Jiangxi Province, which the company points out is far from the grazing grounds of the panda. Now we can see the Dell product cradled by bamboo.

Dell is working with bamboo packaging supplier Unisource Global Solutions to receive FSC certification for the complete process, from forest to manufacturing plant. Process of bamboo cushion takes little time, but the cost will be less said by Oliver Campbell, Dell's senior manager of packaging. Dell expects to pack additional computers with bamboo cushions in 2010.
