Up until now, recycling of plastics was said to be difficult, due to deterioration in the quality of the plastic when undergoing recycling. However, through joint development with a plastics manufacturer (UMG ABS), Fuji Xerox is the first in the industry to succeed in recycling plastics. We have built a system for the materials reuse, where the outside cover (ABS plastic) of copy machines collected from the market are separated, crushed, and cleaned, and is introduced into Fuji Xerox products as recycled plastic (ABS plastic), and as a material that is equivalent to newly manufactured ABS plastic.
Then, recycled plastic is formed as part of the outside cover where nowadays, quality in external appearance is sought after in the strictest manner. This recycled plastic is input into the production line for copy machines and is used.
This recycled plastic guarantees a quality that is equivalent to that of newly manufactured ABS plastic (formability, properties, color tone, etc.), and has acquired certification from UL (Underwriter's Laboratories), which is a safety testing institution based in the United States.
