Getac Technology Corporation (Getac) today announced a new step towards a sustainable world by adopting SSS' innovative SORPLAS into its range of premium rugged laptops and tablets. The announcement reaffirms both companies' collaboration to utilising environmentally conscious materials and developing products that create a more sustainable future for all.

    SORPLAS is an environmentally conscious plastic developed and provided by SSS, which can achieve up to 99% utilisation rate of recycled materials. SORPLAS is incredibly durable, even in high-temperatures and humid environments where plastics can quickly deteriorate, and it also gives consideration to aesthetics. Thanks to the above-mentioned high-quality standards and environmental friendliness, SORPLAS is used in Sony Group's products, as well as outside Sony Group companies.

    In addition, compared to virgin flame-retardant polycarbonate resin, the amount of CO2 emitted during SORPLAS production is significantly reduced, and it has been technically confirmed that its properties can be maintained even after repeated recycling.  As a result, its adoption can greatly reduce the environmental impact of technology manufacturing in the future.
