PFU America, Inc., About Us - Careers, Media, & Customer Service Available Online
For more than half a century, the PFU group of companies (“PFU”) has been committed to improving lives through digital transformation and innovative technology adoption.
PFU Limited was founded in 1960 and our joint-venture roots weave back to 1973 when we joined PANAFACOM, a consortium of companies including Fujitsu and Panasonic that developed the first minicomputers. Years later, in 1987, USAC Denshi and PANAFACOM merged to establish PFU Limited (PANAFACOM, USAC).
In 1983, PFU Limited launched its first document scanner.
Our ScanSnap and fi Series scanners are considered best-in-class by personal users and enterprise organizations around the world. PFU has been committed to manufacturing and supporting digital transformation-focused products for our customers and partners for decades. From introducing the first flatbed scanner to building the best-selling fi-7160, our innovative spirit and solution-forward technologies have helped us achieve and maintain our top spot as the leader in document scanning solutions.
In 2022, we joined the Ricoh Group of companies and changed our name from Fujitsu Document Scanners to Ricoh Document Scanners.
Besides the change in branding, our customers and partners can expect the same level of excellence, quality, and reliability. The R&D, manufacturing, sales, marketing, and services that our customers and partners know and trust will stay the same.
In recent years, we have expanded our family of products to better meet the emerging needs of our loyal customers and partners. Building on a legacy of groundbreaking technology, a vision of collaboration empowerment, and a mission to serve, we now include projectors, multi-function printers, portable monitors, and other quality and productivity-improving devices in our offerings.
We are dedicated to bringing best-in-class consumer and enterprise solutions to organizations everywhere, helping them move forward in a more empowered, connected, sustainable way.
