Sustainable Printing

The way we print is changing

The graphics industry has many analogue techniques which, especially when used for bespoke or short run work, have an enormous impact on the environment.

Linear to the circular economy

Now, thanks to the latest developments in digital print technology, there are machines which can print while also:

  • Massively reducing raw material use

  • Using fewer and more sustainable consumables

  • Needing far fewer parts replacing

  • Producing less waste

  • Consuming less water

  • Producing 100% recyclable printed products

This technology is moving print from the linear to the circular economy in which everyone has a role to play in keeping our planet liveable and our prosperity intact.

Key considerations

With fiscal 2030 as its long term goal, the Fujifilm plan lays the foundations of the Fujifilm Group’s business management strategies for sustainable growth. In this plan, they have set targets in the following four priority areas, as well as in supply chain and governance, that form the basis of their business activities.

Environment

Contribute to resolving environmental issues through the reduction of our global environmental impact

Health

Create a healthier society through the processes of prevention, diagnosis and treatment in the service of healthcare

Daily life

Support tangible and intangible social infrastructure aspects via our products, services and technologies

Work Style

Promote social change to improve workplace motivation by extending our in-house work-style reform

These targets serve as guideposts towards their goal of contributing to the realisation of a sustainable society through the dual standpoints of resolving social issues through their business activities and considering society and the environment in their business processes.
