At just 24.25mm at the front and 28.9mm at the back, weighing in at 1.65kg, the 3811TG by size and weight has reduced material consumption whilst still providing mobile PC performance. The notebook features an eco-friendly panel, main board and battery pack and has been named by Greenpeace as being completely free of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Brominated Flame Retardants (BFR) and mercury. It also comes with newly designed packaging that boasts 35.8% less material than previous generations. With both reduced packaging, less material consumption and modular construction, the Aspire 3811TG is a breeze to break down for recycling.

The eco-friendly production and parts make the Aspire 3811TG a Greenpeace Certified machine as well as being fully compliant with RoHS and WEEE directives for reduction of hazardous substances."
