Sustainability
The Leitz Home Office Laminator reduced its footprint by 35% from the line’s predecessor, decreasing its impact on environment. In addition to the reduction in footprint, a new heat system was implemented, increasing the machine’s overall power efficiency. Both of these applications make the new Leitz Home Office Laminator considerably more environmentally friendly than the line’s predecessors.
