For KMP, sustainability is not an add-on, but has been at the heart of our corporate philosophy for decades. As a manufacturer of high-quality printing consumables, we bear a special responsibility for our consumption of resources and our ecological footprint.

We focus on solutions that combine performance, economy and environmental protection — through remanufacturing, durable components, efficient processes and short distances. In this way, our products can have multiple effects: for customers, for the environment and for the next generation.

In Europe, hundreds of millions of printer modules are thrown away every year — and with them valuable materials.
With our Save Resources Recycling Center, we systematically return empty ink cartridges and toner cartridges to the cycle.

What happens:

• professional dismantling & cleaning
• Replacement of all wearing parts with new parts
• precise refilling
• strict function and quality tests

Each remanufactured cartridge saves raw materials, reduces emissions and avoids waste — genuine circular economy instead of a throwaway principle.

At the same time, we promote social engagement:
The repurchase value of empty containers can be donated directly to charitable organizations — simply and transparently.

Our production facility in the Czech Republic is certified according to ISO 14001:2015.
This ensures that resource consumption, emissions and waste are continuously checked and further reduced.

Living environmental protection means for us:

• efficient use of materials
• responsible processes
• regular internal and external audits
• consistent further development of our standards

For us, climate protection begins at our own location: In the Čkyně plant, we generate almost CO₂-neutral production electricity through a modern photovoltaic system. At the company headquarters in Eggenfelden, a highly efficient air-source heat pump system with natural refrigerant ensures an environmentally friendly heat supply. Intelligent energy management also helps to use resources in a targeted and economical manner. In this way, we consistently reduce emissions where they arise.

This is how we reduce emissions directly at the source.

In 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, we were awarded the title of
„Remanufacturer of the Year“ four times in a row.

This award stands for:

• continuous peak performance
• leading role in remanufacturing
• strong responsibility for people & the environment
• Innovative strength in a demanding market

A success that would not be possible without the trust of our customers, partners and employees – and motivates us to become even better every day.
