Kyocera says it is the first UK vendor to include every printing product in its range in the carbon neutral offer
Through the new offering, two carbon neutral printing solutions for the UK and Irish market will offset the carbon footprint of customers’ devices and consumables.
These will be in the form of Carbon Neutral Printers & MFPs (CNP) and Carbon Neutral MPS (CN-MPS), both of which will be made available to channel partners and end-customers.
CNP will carbon offset both the device and the consumables it uses over the lifetime of the product via a bolt-on to the device, covering all elements of production, packaging, transportation, consumables, plus toner and device recycling.
With, CN-MPS Kyocera says this extends CNP to include engineer mileage for customers taking a Kyocera service and is targeted to their channel partners. To close the loop both solutions include Kyocera’s Toner Take Back and Device Recycling services.
Martin Fairman, group sales and marketing director at Kyocera, says: “A huge amount of work has gone into making this possible. We see it as the strongest indicator yet of Kyocera’s commitment to sustainability and our carbon-neutral company status.”
“As an organisation we strive to evolve. Our company motto ‘Respect the divine and love people’ moves us to develop and promote our environmental policies, performance, and culture. It was the driving force behind our Carbon Reduction Plan published earlier this year.
“Now we wish to share this with our channel partners and all our customers; that’s why we developed two green printing offers - Carbon Neutral Devices and Carbon Neutral Managed Print Services.”
