New Year New Innovations

3MLogoWith the new year fast approaching, maybe it’s time to think about updating your office to keep up with your competitors and impress your clients and customers. 2010 brings new gadgets and gismo’s and a new approach to office life. Why not take the edge of tedious day to day tasks with more up to date innovations and keep your staff believing in your business.

At Office 365, we believe that one of the most useful and popular up to speed innovations is the Digital Easel. The one we have chosen for you is by 3M and is the most competitively priced on the market. The 3M Digital Easel featured to3m-digital-easel your right is PC and Mac compatible and so can be used by all.

The 3M Digital Easel combines the traditional easel with simple technology to electronically capture notes at they are being written.

  • Save notes in a variety of formats
  • No separate power source needed, just connect the USB to your computer
  • Collaborate with participants in remote locations in real time with the Shared-Meeting application
  • Can be used as a standard whiteboard as well as with 3M Post-it® Meeting Charts

This is great for training, internal collaboration and customer presentations and is designed to make the meeting room a more efficient place. Using an appliance such as this means that during meeting and presentations, your staff can focus on what is being presented and actively participate in the presentation as opposed to the old method of note taking. There will be no need for notes with this easel as it makes them for you! At the end of the session, everything written on the easel has transferred to your PC or Mac and can be printed off for reference. No need for minutes, no need for notes! There are other Digital Easels to choose from at Office 365 however, if you’d like to choose for yourself why not take a look at our site where you will find saving across the whole range.

3M is fundamentally a science-based company who produce thousands of imaginative products. They are a leader in scores of markets, from health care and highway safety to office products, abrasives and adhesives. 3M’s success begins with their ability to apply their technologies often in combination to an endless array of real world customer needs. All of this is of course made possible by the people of 3M and their singular commitment to make life easier and better for people around the world.

The Green Bit

In 1975, 3M was one of the first major manufacturing companies actively to address environmental issues and, as with their drive for innovation, they involved employees through their benchmark programme Pollution Prevention Pays. In the UK and Ireland they have managed to achieve Carbon Trust Standard certification for reducing their carbon footprint year-on-year.

3M believe they have a sound record of achievement in corporate responsibility but continually strive to improve their performance and address the ongoing challenges and opportunities. They are a company committed to sustainable development through a proactive approach to environmental protection, social responsibility and strong economic progress.

In 2008 3M was presented the Environmental Responsibility Award in the European Office Products Awards for the company’s development of recycled Post-it® products. ,By 2010, 3M aim to;

  • Reduce Volatile Air Emissions by 25%
  • Improve Energy Efficiency by 20%
  • Reduce Waste (NonProduct Output) by 20%
  • Complete 800 Pollution Prevention Pays projects

The environment is becoming increasingly for all of us. Governments, customers and the public are becoming more interested in the proper disposal of used electronics. As a result the European Union has developed the WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC) which was published on 27 January 2003, to ensure that systems for collection, treatment and recycling of electronic waste will be in place throughout the European Union. As the environment is a very important issue to the 3M, Company, they want to make sure that all products that fall within the WEEE Directive are dealt with according to these regulations.
