The proprietary tool is an Australian first in its industry sector, and estimates the carbon emissions from energy consumed during the operation of document equipment, including printers, copiers and multifunction devices. The calculator also models potential carbon emission reductions that could be realised with changes to the document infrastructure via consolidation or equipment upgrade.

The Carbon Calculator was created expressly for the Australian market and incorporates benchmark data reflecting various office environments typically found in different business and industry sectors.

“Australian business leaders are increasingly motivated toward corporate responsibility and sustainable practices,” said Nick Kugenthiran, General Manager, Fuji Xerox Australia. “The Carbon Calculator gives organisations a practical tool to estimate their current carbon emissions from the electricity used in the operation of devices and the potential carbon benefits of improving their document infrastructure.”
