Giving Back: Ricoh Canada Participates in Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup

Tokyo-based Ricoh, a manufacturer of commercial inkjet printheads, large format printers and office imaging equipment, announces its support for the Great Canadian Shoreline Clean Up as part of its commitment to the UN’s Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs). The company encourages its employees to participate in environmentally sustainable practices or initiatives each year.

In 2017, Ricoh announced its support of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which address global concerns such as poverty, environmental degradation, and climate. As part of the company’s commitment to the goals, Ricoh says it has changed its annual campaign name from Ricoh EcoAction month to Ricoh Global SDG Action month.

“Ricoh’s SDG Action Month initiative is just one of many ongoing campaigns our organization is involved where consideration for the environment is a central element of how Ricoh and its employees go about their daily routines,” says Eric Fletcher, vice president of marketing at Ricoh.

To mark Ricoh Global SDG Action month, the company plans lends support to the Shoreline Cleanup across Canada throughout June. The company says it has scheduled cleanups in more than 10 communities across the country.
