The majority of the company's revenue comes from products, solutions and services that improve the interaction between people and information. It's known for the quality of its technology, the exceptional standard of its customer service and sustainability initiatives.

Joe Ciliberto, General Manager, Marketing and Product Strategy of Ricoh Australia, said, “Fifty five per cent of communication is non-verbal: in other words, it's visual. Previous collaboration technology has fallen short in its mission to give workers a truly visual communication medium. Ricoh’s Visual Communication offering includes a wide range of solutions such as unified video conferencing, interactive whiteboards, projectors, mobile applications and purpose built huddle rooms. These tools enable workers to collaborate in a more agile and efficient way no matter where they are.

“Organisations stand on the cusp of a new age in workplace mobility and connectivity. By finally improving the quality of virtual collaboration to match that of face-to-face meetings, Ricoh’s Visual Communication offering reduces the need for business travel, delivering significant cost and time savings for organisations.” 

As workplaces become increasingly mobile and open plan, employees still need dedicated collaboration spaces. That’s why Ricoh Australia designed a new concept called HuddleBox. 
Stuart Hammond, Group Manager, Solutions & Technology Strategic Marketing, said, “We partner with customers to create and install a dedicated meeting facility within their existing office space, which allows teams to collaborate easily for quick decision-making.”

Companies can achieve time and cost savings, and experience productivity benefits, immediately. The Visual Communication tools brings people together so they can work more effectively to achieve business goals.”
