Konica Minolta Business Solutions ME DMCC
Konica Minolta had its beginings in the 19th century - and ever since, has been synonymus with quality, innovation and leadership. The company we know today as Konica Minolta started as two seperate businesses - Konica and Minolta - which merged in 2003.
In 1873, a Japanese man named Rokusaburo Sugiura began selling photographic materials at his Tokyo apothecary - Konica. By the begining of the 20th century, the company had developed its first camera and a range of quality photographic products. In 1971, Konica released Japan's first plain paper photocopier, developing a dominant position in high speed, high quality document management systems and imaging products.
Minolta was founded in 1928 to manufacture cameras and then to pioneer related technologies. This included a latent image transfer system, the world's first magnification and reduction photocopier, and the world's first photocopier to produce two-colour images in a single pass. Minolta went on to achieve a strong global presence as a pioneer in the field of high quality imaging technology.
In 2003, both companies come together - and became a technology force to be reckoned with. The early, pioneering spirit in both companies lives on today - and is reflected by our research and development division, which continually reaches into new areas of knowledge. Today, Konica Minolta is expert in 12 crore technologies - including materials, optics, nano-fabrication and imaging. It is this passion for excellence in new technologies that ensures we continue to be a world-leader in research.
