Katun unveils new ecoKAP Cartridges

These cartridges are exclusive to Katun and will provide industry partners with an eco-friendly choice by using less waste. The Katun ecoKAP cartridge uses a patent-pending cap that facilitates the refilling to make the Katun cartridge re-usable. The ecoKAP cartridges are currently manufactured using more than 60 per cent of recycled plastics with plans to increase the percentage of recycled plastic in the future.

Katun will introduce this new technology to its Kyocera and Utax customer partners as it transitions to the Katun Performance toners for use in the Kyocera TaskAlfa 2554ci & 3554ci series devices as well as the Utax 2508ci & 3508ci series devices. Katun also intends to extend this cartridge design to other brands and models within the portfolio to expand the environmental impact potential.

Heidi Boller, General Manager for Katun EMEA said, “We are very excited to be introducing a truly environmental product to the Office Equipment Channel which will also become part of the expanding range of environmentally certified products. The empty Katun ecoKAP cartridges will be readily accepted for recycling as part of our Core Collection Partner Services. Katun is very proud to be taking concrete steps to reduce the industry’s environmental impact by introducing Katun’s own brand circular economy product.”

Katun EMEA will also be introducing the Katun ecoKAP Refilled Cartridges which can be refilled up to three times.
