Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialisation and foster innovation

SDG 9

The manufacturing industry’s recovery from COVID-19 remains incomplete and uneven: some high-income regions achieved record-high manufacturing value added per capita in 2022 but levels in LDCs were not much higher than the 2015 baseline.

In the aftermath of the pandemic, data show that higher-technology industries recovered faster and proved to be more resilient, pointing to the need to promote innovation and technology transfer in a way that benefits all countries.

To achieve Goal 9 by 2030 it is essential to support LDCs, invest in advanced technologies, lower carbon emissions, and increase global mobile broadband access.

Our Work in This Area

Agilico Zero - Refurbished Devices

Our nationwide purpose built MFD refurbishment centres are doing great work in the circular economy. At these sites, our qualified teams of expert engineers refurbish and give a new lease of life to ex-showroom or low-utilisation devices, resulting in lower cost yet incredibly reliable machines ready to perform at the highest level once again.

Environmental Impact Award Win

Every year we prevent 1000s of printer toner bottles and device component parts from reaching landfills by reusing them for their original purposes. Demonstrating our long-standing commitment to improving our environmental impact through our MFD refurbishment and recycling centres, we were delighted to win the Best Environmental Impact Award category at the Midlothian & East Lothian Business Awards 2024.

More To Come

Our internal SDG hub is currently receiving ideas from colleagues across our business on the next steps we can take to achieve this goal.
