The toner manufacturer celebrates the milestone this month.
Integral was founded in 1966, and the company added that it has “since managed to become one of the leading toner manufacturers worldwide”, having entered the toner business “as the first independent company to manufacture electrostatic toners in Europe”. With its 50th anniversary next year, the company has managed to build an “extensive range of toners” in both colour and monochrome, as well as a “strong network of customers around the world”.
The toner manufacturer noted that its launch of Kyocera toners for the aftermarket form part of being “solely focused on bringing a quality product to the market”, adding that it considers the toners an “important addition to its portfolio” which “marked a turning point for its business”. Other expansions of the business include the acquisition of Pelikan’s Brother-type toner business in December 2014, and Integral sees this as “the next step towards holding a leading position for bulk toner”.

A “state-of-the-art” production plant has been constructed in Oyonnax, France as well, as part of the plan to “keep up with release of new products on a regular basis”, and future products set to be launched include colour toners for Canon and Konica Minolta cartridges. In May, the company also started construction of a new warehouse at its central logistics centre in Kerken, Germany, with the finished site adding 3,000 square metres of “production logistics and office building” space.
The company concluded: “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’s 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.”
