Ricoh named one of the world’s most sustainable companies for the seventh year in a row

The recognition highlights not only Ricoh’s commitment to sustainability in its own company practices, but its dedication to improving sustainability for its customers, raising environmental awareness and providing sustainable innovations that deliver energy and cost savings.

Ricoh combines ecological concerns with best business strategies to drive environmental conservation and profitability simultaneously. Every Ricoh office worldwide holds the international standard ISO14001 for the design and implementation of effective environmental management systems, and all factories have a zero waste to landfill policy. The inclusion of Ricoh as one of the world’s most sustainable companies in the Global 100 list also recognises Ricoh’s aggressive carbon strategy which has seen the company reduce its carbon footprint by 45,000 tonnes since 2007. The companies selected for the Global 100 were chosen from 3,500 corporations in all business sectors, analysed in detail, compared to their industry peers, and evaluated as the global corporations which have been most proactive in managing environmental, social and governance issues.
