Secaucus, NJ – Panasonic said Monday it has launched an
advertising campaign focused on its goal of becoming a leader in environmental
innovation.
The
ad campaign features print and television ads highlighting
Panasonic’s eco-initiatives for the creation of products that save, create,
store, and manage energy as well as products that can be more easily and
completely recycled.
The campaign follows Panasonic’s recently announced Green Plan
2018 initiative, which is aimed turning Panasonic into the leading electronics
company in green technologies and next-generation energy and enviro-business
solutions by 2018.
Panasonic said the goal of the campaign is to deepen awareness of
Panasonic’s eco products and services among both consumers and business
partners.
Beginning today, five different ads began appearing in the print
and online editions of the New York Times, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and
Washington Post as well as popular networking websites Linked In, Facebook and
Panasonic’s Twitter site.
The five ads spotlight different Panasonic eco-innovations in
green products for home and business, including:
-

Star 4.0 rating.

ISO14001 and RoHS-compliant, Energy Star-qualified, and rated either Gold or
Silver on the EPEAT registry, indicating the highest levels of environmental
performance, Panasonic said.

In January a television ad campaign will follow the print and

as DirecTV programming, Panasonic said.
