Snap Printing Circular Quay has sold two presses to ABC Copier Solutions, which will dismantle and recycle the machines as part of its sustainability-focused equipment lifecycle program.
ABC Copier Solutions specialises in the purchase, dismantling, and removal of outdated equipment across Australia, ensuring it is recycled in an environmentally responsible manner. The recovered parts are shipped to Singapore for servicing, before being distributed for reuse in markets around the world.
“We purchase these machines, export them, and ensure they’re recycled in an environmentally responsible way,” said Jaxon Crocker, director of ABC Copier Solutions.
“In the past, many of these machines would’ve ended up in landfill, but we give them a second life and keep them in use for years to come. The machines get sent to places like China, Thailand, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Indonesia, and the Philippines, and they’re all reused in an environmentally friendly way,” Crocker said.
“As part of our service, we handle everything – from dismantling to removal – making the whole process hassle-free for our clients. They don’t have to worry about a thing. We take the sting out of it, so to speak.”
“We’ve bought machines of all ages –some just a year old, others five, 10, even 20 years old. It really depends on what’s available.”
As it services every part of Australia, ABC Copier Solutions has offices in Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, along with storage facilities all over Australia.
“One of the key things we focus on is making sure our clients aren’t left without a machine. We coordinate everything so they can keep their production running smoothly. When the time comes, they just give us a call, and we take care of the rest,” Crocker said.
“As a business, we want to drive home the recycling message. Not only do we help extend the life of equipment, but we also make the pickup and recycling process incredibly easy. One phone call – that’s all it takes, and we’re on it.”
“By dismantling and removing outdated machines, we significantly reduce the amount of redundant equipment that ends up in landfill.”
Richard Cook, managing director of Snap Printing Solutions Circular Quay, said the two machines sold to ABC Copier Solutions – a Xerox Versant 2100 Press and a Xerox Iridesse Digital Colour Production Press – were both around 10 years old.
“I’d heard of ABC Copier Solutions through industry circles, which led me to reach out to Jaxon. The team was professional, responded promptly, and we were able to finalise a deal quickly – it was a smooth and straightforward process,” Cook said.
“By partnering with ABC Copier Solutions to responsibly retire our machines, we’re ensuring that even the end of a machine’s life contributes to a more sustainable future. There’s still life left in them, and this approach helps ensure that value isn’t wasted.”
