Why should I choose an EIZO monitor?

By Mike Owen, Head of Marketing EIZO UK

A screen is just a screen, right?

When outfitting an office, it’s common to default to the same manufacturer for both the computer and the monitor, often basing the decision on basic specifications like size and resolution. However, does this provide the best user experience or optimal environment for your staff? While ergonomic chairs and height-adjustable desks are often prioritised to create a comfortable workspace, the screen, where we spend the majority of our workday staring, tends to be an afterthought.

Have you ever questioned why a specific monitor was chosen for your desk? You probably have clear reasons for your choice of laptop, chair, desk, keyboard, or mouse, but when it comes to your monitor, you might not know why it was selected. This is an important consideration because while desks and chairs from different manufacturers are common, computers and monitors often come from the same supplier.

At EIZO, we pride ourselves on being a visual technology company dedicated to producing specialised screens for a diverse range of customers – from healthcare and air traffic control to the world’s top post-production film studios. We make monitors for those who make decisions that matter, whether diagnosing a patient or sending an important email, the monitor is the ultimate interface with that decision. So why settle for a bundled monitor when you can choose the right tool for the job?

What makes the right tool for the job?

Auto-Brightness Control: Optimizes screen brightness according to the environment, reducing eye strain
Wide Viewing Angles: Ensure clear visibility from any position
Flicker-Free Viewing: Prevents headaches and eye fatigue with regulated brightness and flicker control
Reduced Glare: Maintains clear screen visibility even in bright office conditions
Adjustable Brightness: Matches screen brightness to various lighting environments
Ergonomics: Allows height and angle adjustments to suit individual needs
Uniformity: Ensures consistent brightness and colour across the screen, essential for detailed work

These features enhance comfort and productivity in any work environment, minimising downtime and ensuring a healthier work experience. But the benefits of an EIZO monitor extend far beyond these features.

Wider benefits of choosing EIZO

IT investments are often planned for a three-year period, yet many organisations keep their hardware longer, especially when economic conditions are tough. While most IT equipment comes with three years or less, EIZO offers a five-year warranty on all FlexScan products. What happens if you sweat your equipment for extended periods without warranty coverage? It becomes more expensive, difficult to manage, and increases downtime. We believe in buying once and buying well. This means our monitors are built to last, and if issues arise, they are repaired in the UK by local engineers, ensuring quick and efficient support. Maintaining a service and repair centre in the UK also helps reduce our carbon footprint.

Did you know ocean freight produces about 10% of the carbon footprint of air shipments?

Our products are designed and made in Japan, but EIZO UK only ships products via ocean to keep our carbon footprint down. We can show you the complete carbon footprint of your product from manufacture to end of life. It may not seem important, but it will help your organisation meet challenging ESG targets and with non-financial reporting over the next few years. Why not get ahead of the game and see how EIZO can help you manage your carbon footprint?

Your carbon footprint from manufacturing and shipping is an element of a product lifecycle, but what about the power it takes to use your screen?

We have you covered on that front as well! Our FlexScan EV2460 was the first monitor over 20” to receive a ‘B’ EU Energy rating. In fact, all our monitors are leading performers in their class, not only keeping your carbon footprint down but also reducing your electricity bill, offering a 15% power saving across your entire office.

EIZO can help you win across multiple fronts

Choosing an EIZO monitor means choosing quality, longevity, and sustainability. It means providing your team with the best possible tools to perform their jobs without compromising their health. With EIZO, you can enhance productivity, reduce your carbon footprint, and enjoy significant cost savings. So why settle for anything less? Choose EIZO and experience the difference a superior monitor can make.
