At FUJIFILM Business Innovation, we released our first self-developed multifunction device in 1973.We later began to develop unique environmental technologies that enable both high energy efficiency and usability-, including reducing standby power consumption and the Smart WelcomEyes technology.We have received the Energy Conservation Grand Prize 14 times in Japan (industry record, according to research by FUJIFILM Business Innovation).
We reduce the CO2 emissions from the use of our products by developing energy-efficient products. In recent years, we also provide solutions that enable diverse work styles, reducing the movement of people and goods to help customers reduce their environmental impact.
IH fusing technologies that enable quick heating to eliminate the necessity of preheating in standby or power-saving mode to conserve energy and increase convenience.
It has a fusing temperature that is around 10 °C lower than that of the EA-Eco toner. This results in lower power consumption.
Use of LEDs as the image forming unit enables space and energy saving design and ensures high image quality.
It is an automatic sensing technologies that wakes up a multifunction device from sleep mode when it detects a person about to use the device. This both conserves energy and increases convenience.
The technology performs a detailed control of electrification to only power the required parts according to the functions being used to conserve energy and increase convenience.
The circuit technology ensures there are no problems when the CPU is powered off to massively reduce the power consumption of multifunction devices in sleep mode.
We promote environmentally conscious products by rating our lower environmental impact products (multifunction devices, printers, and production printers) based on criteria applied to the entire Group under the Fujifilm Group’s Green Value Products certification program.
In addition to multifunction devices and printers, solutions and services also lead to environmental conservation by reducing the movement of people and goods. Therefore, we also certify solutions and services under the Fujifilm Group's Green Value Products certification program, thus contributing to customers regarding both work styles and the environment.
The Apeos C7072 Series, launched in October 2026, features a compact footprint of 591 mm in width and 685 mm in depth across the entire product lineup, achieved through the miniaturization of circuit boards and the paper path. In addition, the series incorporates the new ELFEAT toner and a newly developed fusing unit, reducing the fusing temperature by approximately 21°C compared with the Apeos C7071,*1 which contributes to lower power consumption during operation.The series also incorporates recycled plastics at a design-based weight ratio of 50%*2 and recycled steel at a design-based weight ratio of 5%.*3 Compared with the Apeos C7071, CO2 emissions across the product lifecycle, from raw material procurement and manufacturing to use, disposal, and recycling, have been reduced by 26.7%.*4 In addition, remote monitoring technologies, including AI-based detection of abnormal operating sounds and monitoring of equipment conditions, enable service personnel to identify likely causes of issues and required replacement parts before visiting a customer site. These capabilities help reduce repeat service visits and travel associated with maintenance activities, which can contribute to reducing transportation-related CO2 emissions from maintenance services.

We disclose data on the CO2 emissions of some multifunction device and printer models throughout their lifecycle, from the procurement of raw materials to their production, distribution, use and disposal, via Japan EPD Program by SuMPO.
In recent years, amid the increasing seriousness and frequency of weather disasters, local governments are pressed to prepare for contingencies by establishing a system for promptly evaluating damage and making appropriate judgments to protect the safety of residents and help them put their lives back in order.However, in past disasters, including major earthquakes, there were cases where it took several months before victims were issued certificates.
FUJIFILM System Service noted that the reason why operations for issuing victim certificates took so long was that they involved many troublesome manual processes done by humans using paper forms.The company developed a new application supporting official surveys certifying the damage to homes leveraging its knowledge of local government operations which it gained through many years of experience supporting local governments.By digitalizing all of these processes, FUJIFILM System Service helps improve the efficiency of local government operations.
Towards the decarbonization of society, we have continued to engage in activities with the goal of achieving the Fujifilm Group's target, "Reduce the Fujifilm Group’s CO2 emissions by 50% by the end of fiscal 2030 (compared to the fiscal 2019 level)." These activities include introducing energy-efficient equipment at our development and production sites, reviewing our procurement and production processes, developing energy-efficient production technologies, and conducting examinations to introduce these technologies to our production lines.
FUJIFILM Business Innovation switched all electricity used at its production sites in the Asia-Pacific region*5 to 100% renewable energy in December 2025. As a result, the company expects to reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 8,391 tons*6 based on its FY2024 electricity consumption. The production sites covered by this initiative are FUJIFILM Manufacturing Shenzhen Corp. (Shenzhen, China), FUJIFILM Manufacturing Hai Phong Co., Ltd. (Hai Phong, Vietnam), and FUJIFILM Eco-Manufacturing (Suzhou) Corp. (Suzhou, China).
- *5 Annual electricity consumption in FY2024 was approximately 17,757 MWh.
- *6 Calculated using the market-based method based on CO2 emission factors per kWh disclosed by electricity suppliers for the electricity consumed in FY2024.
At FUJIFILM Business Innovation's Yokohama Minatomirai Center, we are reducing the consumption of electricity, cold water and steam by changing temperature settings and the duration of the nighttime operations of the air conditioners in the laboratory and other rooms and by installing LEDs. As a result, we achieved a 536-ton reduction of total CO2 emissions.In recognition of these initiatives, we received the 7th Yokohama Global Warming Countermeasures Award in Japan.
FUJIFILM Business Innovation promotes Activity Based Working (ABW) to achieve both higher productivity and lower environmental impact.
By digitalizing business processes, we have reduced paper-based operations involving contracts, invoices, and other documents, while promoting flexible workstyles that are not bound by location through the use of remote work.
At our new office in Nishi-Shinjuku, established in 2023, we consolidated offices in line with these workstyle reforms, reducing the total occupied office space by approximately 27%. Through reduced use of air conditioning and lighting, which account for a large portion of office electricity consumption, as well as the adoption of energy-efficient equipment, we reduced electricity consumption by approximately 60% in 2024*7.
Furthermore, by utilizing renewable energy, we became the first domestic office site within the company to achieve carbon neutrality.
- *7 Before the relocation, the combined annual electricity consumption of the offices was approximately 3,070,250 kWh.
Our engineers in the Tokyo Metropolitan area visit customers for maintenance and inspection using electric vehicles, shared bicycles, and vans for the transportation of consumables, which reduces CO2 emissions.
Initiatives by employee volunteers through the HASU Club
The HASU Club is a volunteer organization of people working for FUJIFILM Business Innovation and its affiliates and people who have retired from the companies. It is operated by the members voluntarily and independently. The Natural Environment Group of the HASU Club engages in tree-planting and environmental protection activities in various places in Japan.
