Konica Minolta’s proprietary polymerised toner, Simitri® HD, uses biomass as one of its components. This makes it CO2 -neutral during recycling. At the same time the polymerisation process generates around 40% less CO2 than conventional toner production. In addition, Simitri® HD enables fusing at lower temperatures, reducing energy consumption and further reducing related CO2 emissions.
