One of the most compelling reasons to opt for Barco’s upgrade kits is the significant sustainability advantage they offer. Unlike a complete replacement of a video wall system, which generates a large amount of electronic waste and demands new resources, the upgrade kits allow businesses to retain the bulk of their existing infrastructure. The screen, mechanical structure, and housing of the rear-projection cubes remain intact. Only the outdated projection module, electronics and back covers are replaced with the latest RGB laser technology.
This approach dramatically reduces e-waste, helping organizations meet their sustainability targets by minimizing the amount of equipment that needs to be discarded. Additionally, it conserves the raw materials and energy that would otherwise be consumed in the manufacturing of entirely new units. By extending the service life of existing cubes, Barco’s upgrade kits contribute to a circular economy model where products are reused and kept in service for longer.
