Ricoh products have won 16 awards from Buyers Laboratory LLC (BLI) Winter Pick Awards.
The awards include Outstanding Achievement in Innovation for the Ricoh Smart Operation Panel, A3 MFP Line of the Year for Energy Efficiency and A3 MFP Line of the Year.
These awards recognise the models chosen for delivering outstanding performance during BLI’s rigorous lab testing within their respective categories and are judged by BLI’s highly experienced staff of technicians and editors.
“Twice a year with our Pick awards and once a year with our Line of the Year and Outstanding Achievement awards, BLI gives special recognition to the products that gave outstanding performances in BLI’s unique lab-based evaluations,” says David Sweetnam, head of EMEA Research and Lab Services, BLI.
“I cannot remember having to relate so many awards in one Pick season across so many product types to one vendor before, and it is a true testament to how much hard work and innovation has gone into developing Ricoh’s product range.
“Thirteen of the 16 products are already available in South Africa and the remaining three will be available soon,” says Jacques van Wyk, COO of Ricoh SA. “We are obviously very proud that an objective third-party has divulged the quality of these products compared with the competition and that the range is already so widely supported locally.”
