Dubai / Emirates Business
Canon Emirates (CE), a subsidiary of Canon Middle East, celebrated the signing of its 100th Managed Print Service (MPS) contract in the UAE. A gala event was held at Palazzo Versace to mark the occasion and to launch Canon Business Services, a consulting arm of Canon that will offer a wide range of value-driven solutions for continuous process improvements across various sectors.
With more than 500 customers and 3,000 employees across 18 countries in EMEA, Canon Business Services aims to build long-term relationships in the UAE. This is led by a focus on innovation and enhancing document efficiencies from managing print to mail room and print room services. The division also aims to provide services that enhance the use of information and document handling to transform the way enterprises engage with their customers and manage business processes.
The signing of its 100th MPS customer illustrates Canon’s market strength and on-going commitment to support its customers while embedding sustainability into its business DNA. Managed print services have helped the firm to achieve a 60% reduction in the environmental impact of our hardcopy fleet. Similarly, by providing Software as a Solution (SaaS), we are helping businesses reduce their paper consumption by moving their processes online. The advent of MPS is yet another example of Canon’s commitment to CSR as the service is a tool for enhancing productivity, saving paper, enhancing security and cost-saving on print activities thus contributing to the ‘sustainability vision’ of the region.
Additionally, Canon aims to optimise the lifecycles of its products through
numerous take-back, refurbishment and remanufacturing schemes. Canon
Emirates started its toner and ink cartridge-recycling program in the UAE since 2012 where Canon Emirates business customers in the UAE can apply to the program.
