Sustainable design, delivery, and operation

Invest in a new Ricoh device and you’ll benefit from:

  • Industry-leading electricity consumption. We’ve cut energy consumption in half for our latest devices.
  • Automatic eco-mode energy saving. Ricoh IM C printers consume just 0.3 watts when in sleep mode.

Delivering the future of sustainable printing

Modern, efficient devices

We’re constantly innovating to make printing more environmentally friendly. Our latest industry-leading devices consume 50% less power in sleep mode. We’ve also lowered our toner fusing temperature by 14%.

Carbon offsetting service

We’ve partnered with Anthesis BV to offer carbon balanced printing. This service provides emission offset credits when you make a print purchase and aligns with Oxford Principles for Net Zero. The programme also offers certifications for ISO 14001 evaluations.

Long-standing leadership

Sustainability is a long-term commitment. We established our environmental department in 1976 and our circular economy programme in 1994. We’ve also been recognised by EcoVadis, Corporate Knights, TIME World, and many more, as a leader in sustainability.
