Abstract

Concerning recycle of OA equipment or other products, we have various domestic or overseas requirements. Such requirements are made, in the Class 1 Product Recycle Guideline of the Resource Recovery Promotion Act (previously so-called Recycle Act) which has been implemented in 1991, or recently in the “Green Purchase”, German Blue Angel Mark as well as VDI Guideline 2243. Here, I would like to look at “response to recycle” as social requirement, through the history of requirements of the Blue Angel Mark for OA equipment, particularly dry-type copier (UZ-62). Also, I would outline copier manufacturers' responses to recycle to cope with such situation. And finally, I would mention about the process whereby copier return to raw materials after ending their copying mission, to the full extent of our current knowledge. Hereafter, I will mention about: 1) History of requirements of the Blue Angel Mark; 2) Recycle concept of copier manufacturer; 3) Recyclable product design; 4) Construction of recycle system; 5) Collaboration among artery/vein industries.
