Kyocera is the first UK vendor to include every printing product in their range in a new carbon neutral offer – "from the smallest home printer to its cut-sheet inkjet production printer and every printer and multifunctional (MFP) in between."
“We are demonstrating our commitment to net zero status by launching carbon neutral printing – Carbon Neutral Printers & MFPs (CNP) and Carbon Neutral MPS (CN-MPS) to both channel partners and end-customers,” said Martin Fairman, Kyocera UK Group sales & marketing director.
The carbon neutral printing solutions for the UK & Ireland market “will offset the carbon footprint of customers’ devices and consumables, as well as the transport for the full lifetime of products,” the company said.
Carbon Neutral Printers & MFPs
CNP will carbon offset every device plus the consumables it uses over the lifetime of the product via a simple bolt-on to the device purchase. This covers all elements of production, packaging, transportation, consumables, plus toner and device recycling. This offer is designed for customers buying through a Kyocera’s reseller.
Carbon Neutral MPS
CN-MPS extends CNP to include engineer mileage for customers taking a Kyocera service and is targeted to their channel partners.
Both solutions include Kyocera’s Toner Take Back and Device Recycling services. A certificate of authenticity is available to demonstrate commitment to climate action.

“A huge amount of work has gone into making this possible,” said Fairman (pictured right). “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.
Kyocera devices are carbon offset via three of MyClimate’s international projects certified Gold Standard in Madagascar, Nepal and Kenya. The projects contribute to regional sustainable development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations (UN).
Kyocera Group UK also offset the impact of their staff and buildings through MyClimate, meaning carbon offset is available to cover the whole product life-cycle for every product in their range.
“Setting standards in the industry is something we are incredibly proud of, and we cannot wait to see what these new green offers will achieve,” said Fairman. “Making it easy for our customers and channel partners to tackle climate change, as we do, is important. It’s one of the many steps we can offer to help our customers, especially small businesses and end-users, contribute to climate action.
“We believe that we are stronger together and well positioned to push towards a greener future. We look forward to seeing what the coming months hold as the initiative grows.”
