Through our partner’s recycling, consumption reduction and emission reduction programs we have diverted tonnes of trade waste products from land fill. Our take-back programs are not limited to machines and consumables, and in an industry first, we operate a parts recycling program.

Material from our e-Recycling plant typically goes back into the production of reusable items that make a further contribution to the wider community and harmonise with the environment. These are often in the form of Educational materials, such as rulers, sporting equipment, or park benches.

Our environmental contribution is underpinned by our philosophy and belief that we are obligated to protect and preserve the planet.

As the community focuses more on the environment and clean disposal of commercial and other waste, it is vital that responsible companies develop voluntary programs for handling end of life products.

No longer is it acceptable to dispose of office machines by committing them to landfill or shipping them offshore. It is for this reason that PrinterCorp uses the Ricoh Machine Recycling Program to help its customers to be more responsible for our environment.

This program is a free program designed for our customers for the recycling of their Ricoh machines once they have reached the end of their life. Since its launch in 2002, we have successfully recycled over 180 tonnes of Ricoh machines into reusable materials.
