Following the launching of INTEGRAL Toner for use in Kyocera TASKalfa 3501i/4501i/5501i (to use as TK-6305) in early January 2016, the German manufacturer is already preparing a wide range of releases for Kyocera applications, in terms of colour toners, including: TASKalfa 266ci (to use as TK 5135), Ecosys M6030cdn, M6530cdn, P6030 (to use as TK-5140), Ecosys M6035cidn (to use as TK-5150), FS C-8020MFP, 8025MFP (to use as TK-895).

INTEGRAL is the original manufacturer for The Toner for Better Images and all its toner is REACH compliant.

Apart from the Kyocera applications, INTEGRAL has also launched in late December, INTEGRAL Toner for use in Canon IR Advance C-5045, 5051 (to use as EXV-28, GPR-30) and IR Advance C-5030, 5035, C5235i, C5240i (to use as EXV-29, GPR-31).

The extension of INTEGRAL toner range is part of INTEGRAL´s long term strategy of continuous growth, by making available not only to its customer base and potential new customers a comprehensive list of products, but also by strengthening its position as a high quality toner business partner within the toner industry.

INTEGRAL - Celebrating 50 years of the Toner For Better Images 

INTEGRAL, the German manufacturer and worldwide leader for the Toner for Better Images, is celebrating 50 years of successfully developing, manufacturing and marketing premium quality toners, delivering top-performing products to demanding customers that want uncompromised excellence.

After being founded in 1966, INTEGRAL quickly evolved into becoming a worldwide reference in the toner industry, with its own research toner laboratory for copier toner in 1972 and with the introduction of the first European made electrostatic toner in 1973, giving INTEGRAL the title of one of the oldest toner manufacturers in the world.

After decades of increasing success translated into solid business volumes, INTEGRAL has paved the way for independent toner manufacturers, having become one of the most renowned toner manufacturers in the aftermarket. A pioneer in producing and introducing the first Microtoner in 1982 totally developed and manufactured in Europe, INTEGRAL was also one of the first-to-market in terms of the production of a positive Microfine toner for copiers, which became leader in the market shortly after its release.

With the increasing demand for high quality toners, INTEGRAL established in 2003 a fully automated toner production plant in Oyonnax, a French industrial area known as “Plastics Vallée”. At the same time, aimed at enhancing its production capacity, INTEGRAL had undertaken a set of business acquisitions including NTT New Toner Technologies and Elfotec AG in Switzerland, Elfotec Ltd. toner plant in Ireland and the manufacturing assets of Italian toner manufacturer Baltea. More recently, INTEGRAL acquired Pelikan’s Brother-type bulk toner business, strengthening its position within toner challenging industry.

For 2016, INTEGRAL has been preparing a wide set of new product launches, including an extensive range of colour toners for Kyocera applications, as well as new projects that will bring value-added to its customers. On the occasion of its 50^th anniversary, INTEGRAL continues to aim higher, remaining true to its commitment of being a reliable partner for imaging system professionals, by providing technologically-leading products that increase INTEGRAL customer’s productivity.

INTEGRAL, the German manufacturer forThe Toner for Better Images, following a successful final testing phase, is now launching INTEGRAL toners for use in Toshiba e-Studio 2505 (replacing T-2505E/T-2505P) as well as for use in e-Studio 2006/2306/2506 and 2007/2307/2507 series (replacing T-2507E/T-2507P).  

This latest toner release will expand INTEGRAL´s toner range for Toshiba applications and as happens with every toner that INTEGRAL launches to the market, these two new toners have been attested for optimal image density and high page yield, being therefore in compliance with the highest quality standards required by INTEGRAL.  These new toners are now available for immediate order. 

Following this release, INTEGRAL has also planned two more releases until the end of this year: the much anticipated INTEGRAL colour toners for use in Canon IR C-5235/5240 and C-5250/5255 series; and INTEGRAL monochrome toner for use in Kyocera TASKalfa 3501i/4501i/5501i series (replacing TK-6305). These two sets of toners are close to complete their last stage of testing, after having showed optimal quality consistency throughout the preceding extensive test procedures. 

Aimed at always bringing top quality to the market, all INTEGRAL toners production is made recurring to specialty raw materials and based on a fully automated manufacturing process at INTEGRAL state-of-the-art toner manufacturing plant in France. All INTEGRAL toners are REACH-compliant.

INTEGRAL holds presentation on European Chemical Law REACH at Focus on Europe Conference 

INTEGRAL, the German manufacturer for The Toner for Better Images, represented by Mr. Jan H. Hagemann, Managing Director at INTEGRAL, held a presentation about REACH and its impact on the toner industry at the annual Focus on Europe Conference, which took place in Rome, between 4 and 5 June 2015.

“REACH revisited: the impact of REACH on the toner industry” was aimed at drawing attention to the European Chemical Law REACH and its effects on the toner business, namely in terms of obligations that every player in the market should be attentive to, as well as at raising awareness about the implications of non-compliance. Among other topics, it was highlighted the obligations for sellers of toner to have their toner ingredients (pre)registered under REACH, at a time when REACH enforcement started to take place in all European countries, through on-site inspections. Legal consequences will apply in case of non-compliance, ranging from heavy fines to prison terms.  

As a REACH early-adopter, INTEGRAL was also able to give a first-hand testimonial about the implementation of REACH regulation within the company, highlighting in addition what to expect from a REACH inspection, which INTEGRAL has already gone through and passed successfully.

INTEGRAL celebrates 49^th anniversary 

INTEGRAL, the German manufacturer for The Toner for Better Images, celebrates this June its 49th anniversary. Founded in 1966, INTEGRAL has since managed to become one of the leading toner manufacturers worldwide, after having entered in the toner business as the first independent company to manufacture electrostatic toners in Europe.

With the big round anniversary next year, INTEGRAL holds now an extensive range of toners both for monochrome and colour, having built a strong network of customers around the world. Solely focused on bringing a quality product to the market, INTEGRAL launched successfully in the past year a wide range of high quality colour toners for use in Kyocera, which the company considered to be an important addition to its portfolio and marked a turning point for its business, as an aftermarket manufacturer.

At the same time, INTEGRAL product range was enlarged in late December with the acquisition of Pelikan´s Brother-type toner business, well-known for its proven quality both for monochrome as well as for colour. INTEGRAL has been well acquainted with the manufacturing of positive-polarity toners, such as toners for use in Kyocera, which are on the main products within the range and sees now the manufacturing of toner for use in Brother as the next step towards holding a leading position for bulk toner.

Having invested in a state-of-the-art production plant in Oyonnax, France, it is part of INTEGRAL plan to keep up with release of new products on a regular basis. For this year, the products scheduled to be launched include INTEGRAL colour toners for use in Canon and Konica Minolta, among others.

In order to keep up with the increasing orders and demand for new products, INTEGRAL started this May the construction of a new warehouse facility in its central logistic center in Kerken, Germany. This new facility will allow INTEGRAL to have an additional 3,000 m2, summing up to 17,000m2 of production, logistics and office building.

INTEGRAL embraces these changes and developments as a sign of a successful and established toner business that relies on seriousness and focus on quality on one hand but also, on the other hand, on a dynamic and trustful relationship with INTEGRAL customer base. As a result, INTEGRAL is pleased to celebrate today the achieved sustained success and looks forward to continuing to work for a steady growth in the years to come.
