7. Environment
Ricoh is committed to environmental conservation. From the design and manufacture of new products
through to their everyday use and recycling at end-of-life, Ricoh develops products which limit environmental
impact in every phase of their lifecycle. Ricoh’s environmental credentials include:
Product Design
Ricoh products are designed to be energy-efcient at every stage of their life. We employ new technologies
to save energy and use materials from renewable or recycled sources. Our new PxP™ toner is, for example,
produced organically, reducing energy consumption in the manufacturing process by 30%.
Manufacturing
To ensure 100% of waste is recycled from all sites, zero-waste processes are in place. Major savings in
resource usage have been added to achieve demanding company targets and reduce carbon footprint.
Custom-built pre-congured models require less packaging and take up less space in transit.
Everyday Use
Ricoh products conserve energy, toner and paper in everyday use. Our Quick Start-Up (QSU) technology,
for example, enables quick recovery from energy saving modes. Printing double-sided reduces paper
consumption and scanning to e-mail / folder reduces the need to make paper-based copies, reducing
document volumes.
End-of-Life Recycling
The basis for a sustainable society is the re-use and recycling of end-of-life products. Plastics are marked
for identication and recycling at end-of-life. Collection processes maximize returns from the eld. We meet
and exceed all legislative requirements such as the Waste, Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
regulations.
