Today at Remax Asia 2010, now the world's largest trade show for remanufacturing industry and aftermarket consumables, ICMI (China) Ltd. ("ICL"), a subsidiary of Print-Rite Holdings, announced a next generation of new toner made from bio-organic material ("Bio-Toner") for leading OEMs' office & desktop printers.
Arnald Ho, Chairman and founder of Print-Rite, noted, "These revolutionary toners represent a major step forward in aftermarket consumables in terms of energy conservation, environmental protection, and a reduction on our dependency upon petroleum oil. By using a renewable resource, such as field corn, sugar cane, sweet potatoes and other grown and harvested plants as a resin source, we have shown that the aftermarket now brings to the end user, a more environmental friendly choice in addition to a lower cost alternative to the oil-based toners being offered by the original equipment makers (OEMs)."
The new bio-toners were co-developed by ICL, a subsidiary of Print-Rite Holdings, together with an independent research company based in North America. Sample prints were displayed and distributed at the event, which is drawing an estimated 8,000 visitors to the Zhuhai Air Shop Exposition Center.
