Ricoh and Agilico Workplace Technology: Growing Sustainable Partnerships
At Agilico, we believe in partnerships that create lasting, positive change. Our collaboration with Ricoh is a perfect example of this, as we work together to disrupt the print industry and build a more sustainable future.
Through our award winning Agilico Zero initiative, we refurbish ex-showroom or low-utilisation Ricoh MFDs at our purpose built local refurbishment centres, extending their life and ensuring that no parts go to landfill. Each device is carefully refurbished to as-new condition, guaranteeing it performs at the highest level. This partnership goes beyond just saving resources – each refurbished device prevents over 500kg of CO2 emissions, making a significant impact on the environment. By embracing the circular economy, we’re not only reducing waste but also helping our customers achieve their sustainability goals.
“One big problem currently is that 70% of end-of-life devices in the UK are exported,
increasing carbon emissions and contributing to more devices being sent into landfill, and that's just wrong!We now want a different way of working and that's to extend the life of devices. We understand the challenge of shifting traditional approaches, but the environmental benefits, combined with the ability to extend the life of lightly used devices, make it the right decision for clients and suppliers alike.”
Warren ColbyManaging Director – Agile Print Technology, Agilico
“We work together beyond the traditional supplier/vendor setup – it is a true partnership with Ricoh playing a role beyond simply supplying Agilico with technology. I am delighted that we’re able to help Agilico achieve their ambitious net zero goals through this project.
Through the Agilico Zero programme, we hope to give thousands of multifunctional devices a new lease of life. By extending the life of these barely used machines, we aim to significantly reduce electronic waste and contribute to a truly circular economy – one of the key pillars of our ESG strategy.”
