Flash Drives, a large piece in the eco-puzzle. USB Source’s new NAND Flash requires less than 2% of the energy compared to energy consumption of conventional CD technology.

USB Source new NAND technology uses less than 2% of the energy as conventional CD technology in transferring the same amount of data and in the comparative consumption of petrochemical in the manufacturing process.Eco-friendly is most often seen as picking up trash and recycling. What is often not thought about is the use of energy and how that adversely affects the environment.

Last year over 3 billion, 1 time use CD’s were sold throughout North America and Europe. The energy required to burn information onto a CD has been measure to be as much as 100 times the amount used to load the same information onto a USB Source Flash Drive. Comparatively, the use of petrochemicals in the manufacturing process is nearly negligible when compared to the consumption of petrochemicals used in CD creation. Multiply this use of energy, which is electrical energy often produced by burning coal, natural gas or hydro dams, by the billions of CDs burned each year it becomes easy to see the huge positive environmental impact that the USB Source flash drive business model and its USB Source product line can have on the environment.

USB Source products and its company policies have been cited by the Energy Star program are RoHS and WEE compliant. “ This industry is infamous for producing promotional logo items and products that are not eco-friendly. As a business paradigm the promotional products industry generally offers disposable items that quickly end up in our landfills. It is an eco-nightmare,” states USB Source spokesperson, Peter Thomas. “The goal is to not only produce “green products” but to be a totally “green” company from top to bottom. I think we have proven we are on our way to achieving that goal” USB Source is a vertical manufacturing located in Shenzen China, they are one of the few manufacturing facilities that have achieved RoHS, WEEE and Energy Star rated. The provide flash drive, digital picture frames and mp3 and mp4 OEM solutions for major retail brands and are a B2B solution for promotional logo products in Europe and North America.
