Konica Minolta Now has 33 MFPs on the EPEAT Registry

Konica Minolta recently announced 14 of its Bizhub MFPs (multifunction printers) were added to EPEAT’s definitive global registry for greener electronics. With these additions, the company now has 33 of its MFPs listed on the EPEAT registry, all at “Silver” level status or higher.

The number of optional criteria met by a product determines its EPEAT rating of Bronze, Silver or Gold. For Gold status, a product must fulfill the requirements of Bronze and Silver levels by meeting at least 75 percent of their optional criteria.

Kevin Kern, Senior Vice President of Konica Minolta U.S.A., said the company keeps focusing on environmental issues, which has been evidenced by the EPEAT registration and the superior ranking of the company’s products.

Konica Minolta says the company aims to conduct all of its corporate activities in harmony with society and the environment by integrating environmental, economic and social perspectives into the company’s corporate strategy.

EPEAT provides environmental ratings on electronics, and aims to help companies, governments and consumers easily identify and purchase greener devices for improved environmental benefits.
