Fujifilm Opens Remanufacturing Center in Philippines

Fujifilm Business Innovation announces the establishment of the Circular Manufacturing Center at Fujifilm Optics Philippines Inc. (FOPH), in Laguna, Philippines, to promote the resource circulation in the Asia Pacific by the remanufactured machines’ production. The commencement of operation is planned for August 2026.

In the center, the remanufactured machines are manufactured from collected machines in the Asia-Pacific region, and these will be disassembled to a component level and cleaned. Careful inspection and diagnosis are conducted to identify the parts that are suitable for reuse. The reusable parts will be cleaned and repaired before being sent to reassembly. Each remanufactured machine undergoes the same rigorous inspection process as newly built machines, to ensure they meet the same quality and reliability standards. These remanufactured machines achieve a maximum parts reuse rate of 84% by weight and are provided as new products with their usage history, such as the number of prints, reset and new manufacturing date, product name, product code, and serial number assigned.

FOPH has advanced manufacturing technology developed through the assembly of precision equipments. For this reason, FOPH is suitable for building production line of the remanufactured machines that needs the high-precision manufacturing technology. In addition, FOPH has skilled personnel with extensive experience in precision equipment manufacturing, enabling them to apply their accumulated expertise in assembly techniques and quality control. Building on this foundation, Fujifilm Business Innovation aims to introduce the manufacturing processes established at the remanufacturing site in Japan to the new Philippine center, with the goal of ensuring stable quality and establishing a production system from the initial launch phase. These efforts will contribute to the development of local human resources to promote resource circulation across the Asia-Pacific region.

Additionally, the Philippines, where FOPH is located, is positioned in the center of Asia-Pacific region, therefore possesses geographical advantages in terms of logistics and supply chains, which were key factors in deciding to establish the facility. To make maximal use of these conditions, Fujifilm will strive to achieve the production efficiency as soon as possible and accelerate efforts toward the realization of a circular economy.
