Hsin Tien, Taiwan April 16 2004 -- Power Digital Card (PDC) continues to lead industry concepts in the memory card market. Being granted awards for memory card designs last year, PDC was awarded again this year with the Certificate of Excellence for its RSMMC designs. Recently, PDC takes action to move its production processes for more environmentally friendly concepts, announcing lead free MultiMediaCards. The lead free cards will not have any materials that contain lead, and will not be restricted to density size or form factor (includes standard MultiMediaCard and RSMMC). In PDC, the lead free cards will be classified as "Green Cards."

PDCs concept is to operate in consideration for Mother Earth. All materials used in MultiMediaCard production should be materials that can be recycled or friendly to the environment. Lead is a type of material that is poisonous, thus, PDC sees the importance to move production processes to be lead free. Countries as Europe or Japan are already moving towards the concept and PDC takes an earlier step to make this come true. When fully prepared, PDC plans to transform all of its production processes to be lead free.

According to PDC production Vice President Wells Lin, There are challenges in technology to transform production processes to be lead free, but if you put your mind and heart to it, it can be done. We hope other players in the memory card industry can follow suit and within a short period of time, all of the manufacturers can become protectors of our environment.
