IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Sustainability Programs and Services Hardcopy 2026 Vendor Assessment

Phil Sargeant, Jacqui Hendriks — Tue, 30 Jun 2026 04:00:00 GMT

This IDC study assesses sustainability programs and services among the most prominent global hardcopy vendors and identifies their strengths and challenges. This assessment analyzes both quantitative and qualitative characteristics that position vendors for success in this important market. This IDC study is based on a comprehensive framework to evaluate sustainability measures as part of the vendor's corporate strategy, business operations, products, and services.

"Sustainability is a critical component of hardcopy vendors' business strategy and initiatives, given heightened regulatory pressures and societal drivers compelling both suppliers and end customers to integrate sustainability into their entire business ecosystem," says Phil Sargeant, senior program director for IDC's Imaging, Printing, and Document Solutions group. "While cost is part of the advantage of many sustainability initiatives, suppliers' sustainability posture carries increasing weight as part of customers' provider selection criteria process."
