Waste & Recycling
As landfills bulge with waste, and the increasing
scarcity of natural resources jeopardises our delicate ecosystem,
it becomes imperative that companies help protect and preserve
our environment. To accomplish this, conservation, reuse and
recycling efforts are essential attributes of corporate philosophy.
Fujifilm's sensitivity and commitment to worldwide environmental
concerns make it a leader in conservation and recycling efforts.
Fujifilm has long strived to reduce/conserve
materials in products and to design products with environmental
quality, such that they can be reused or recycled by both
customers and Fujifilm.
The following are recycling and waste collection
programs offered by Fujifilm.
Single-Use Cameras
has been conducting a successful Quicksnap
single-use camera recycling scheme for single-use cameras
since 1990.
Fujifilm offers a free-of-charge environmental
service, and accepts all single-use camera makes.
To promote sustainable practice Fujifilm recommends
that single-use cameras should be packed into used colour
paper shipping boxes, clearly labelled with Fujifilm's Parcel
