September 14, 2023

SINGAPORE, 14 September 2023—FUJIFILM Business Innovation Asia Pacific launches two remanufactured^*1 A3 colour digital multifunction printers, ApeosPort-VI C5571 R and C3371 R from the ApeosPort-VI C series. The printers were developed based on the principle of treating used products as valuable resources instead of as waste. Sales will commence from 15 September in the Asia Pacific region^*2.

In a circular economy, it is paramount to maintain the quality and consistency of materials used in recycled products. FUJIFILM Business Innovation is committed to sustainable development and has been bolstering its environmental strategy with various initiatives, such as collecting used products from users to adopt a closed-loop system. The remanufactured printer series reduce environmental impact with their parts reuse rate of 84% (by weight), and CO2 emissions reduced to 56% as compared to newly manufactured printers^*3 throughout their product lifecycles.

Closed-loop system

FUJIFILM Business Innovation established a company-wide recycling policy in 1995 and a circular production system examining the entire product lifecycle, from product planning, development, and manufacturing stages to disposal was introduced in the same year. Aiming to achieve infinite “zero landfill”, used products are collected, parts are selected, and reused through applying recycling technologies.

FUJIFILM Business Innovation will contribute towards a decarbonized society through innovative technologies, products, and services, and to attain the ultimate goal of Fujifilm Group’s Sustainable Value Plan 2030 with a reduction of CO2 emissions across the entire product life cycle by 50% by fiscal 2030 and to achieve a net zero CO2 emissions by fiscal 2040.
