About Canon Hongkong Company Limited Canon Inc. (TSE:7751 / NYSE:CAJ) was founded in 1937 in Japan. Its predecessor, Precision Optical Instruments Laboratory, produced Japan's first 35 mm focal-plane-shutter camera in 1934, called the Kwanon. Canon Inc. eventually expanded into the photocopying and printing industries, launching Japan's first plain-paper copier in 1970 and the world's first inkjet printer in 1985. With over 70 years of experience in imaging products manufacturing, Canon's global revenue currently stands at US$39.9 billion (as of 31 December 2012). The extensive resources it devotes to research and development has made Canon one of the U.S. imaging industry's top technology patent-holders, and the only manufacturer across the globe to offer both input and output device solutions to the world's various imaging needs. As one of the company’s earliest offices in Asia, Canon Hongkong Co., Ltd. (CHK) was established in 1971. It is responsible for the sales, marketing and services for all Canon product lines in Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR, Taiwan, the Philippines and Mongolia, including its digital cameras, digital video camcorders, printers, copiers, scanners, projectors and other imaging merchandise. CHK adheres to Canon’s corporate philosophy, kyosei, which in essence motivates the company with its staff to proactively strive for harmonious coexistence with other citizens through participation in various social, charitable and environmental activities. Since 2005, the Hong Kong Council of Social Service has awarded CHK the Caring Company Logo by way of recognizing CHK’s continuous efforts to contribute to the local community. Furthermore, CHK also endeavours to adopt internationally recognized management systems, having become certified in conformance with ISO 9001:2008, ISO 14001:2004 and OHSAS 18001:2007 in 2003, 2004 and 2005 respectively. Being a responsible manufacturer, Canon became a global leader in 1990 by being the first to set up its own Canon Toner Cartridge Recycle Factory located in Japan, China, U.S. and France, to make sure all collected toner cartridges are utilised as reusable parts in new products. Up until 2012, Canon had reduced the use of new resources by 201,000 tons, and CO2 emissions by 450,000 tons. Likewise, since 2009 CHK has established Ink Cartridge Collection boxes in voluntary schools, shopping malls, commercial centers and commercial buildings in order to collect used cartridges for recycling purposes.
