Canon has announced that it has been recognised as a ‘Leader’ in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Sustainability Programs and Services Hardcopy 2026 Vendor Assessment This is the second time Canon has received this recognition, following the first such assessment in 2023. The study evaluated 11 worldwide printer and copier vendors, assessing their capabilities and strategies. The report states: ‘Canon is well suited for organisations seeking a vendor with a holistic, technology-driven approach to sustainability, including advanced recycling, remanufacturing, and digital optimisation. Enterprises and SMBs aiming to advance their sustainability objectives through innovative solutions should consider Canon.’
Canon is working to reduce CO2 emissions and waste while increasing its use of recycled materials. These efforts span raw material procurement and manufacturing to distribution, product use, maintenance, and end-of-life recycling and disposal. Canon remanufactures multifunction printers using proprietary processes and technologies developed at plants in Japan and Germany. While at least 90 percent of the components in these remanufactured products come from used units, their quality and performance match those of new products.
