Saving Green by Going Green

Article Contributed by Cyndi Lundeberg

Purchasing new equipment which satisfies eco-friendly concerns might be a business investment most companies are uninterested in making. While purchasing new equipment might prove an expensive undertaking, some green business technologies might actually end up saving your company money. One of these green technologies is a POS system developed by Panasonic System Networks of America.

In adhering to the company’s eco-ideas initiative, Panasonic developed the Lite-ray pos system based on the previous Stingray workstation and recently earned the United State Environmental Protection Agency’s prestigious Energy Star qualification for the eco-friendly system.

The Lite-ray point of sale systems reduce energy and therefore carbon emissions, by eliminating the need for a fan. Because the system better performs per watt and therefore uses less energy, purchasers of the system can enjoy cost saving benefits.

While not only being green, this new system comes with all the traditional necessities businesses come to expect from point of sale systems while providing new revolutionary initiatives as well. Lite-ray is powered by an Intel Atom processor and supports both Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems, making this pos system ideal for all businesses including retail markets.

Lite-ray also offers users customizable options from receipt printing to credit card storing options. To ensure the security of saved information, the system is equipped with not only a back-up and recovery system but also comes with a 3 year warranty.

Hopefully, inventions and upgrades of business technologies will follow suit of the Lite-ray system, therefore encouraging businesses through cost saving benefits to be more green, which will be for the betterment of all.
