    Germany’s Energy Ink and Toner Senses Significant Increase in Demand. 
    After a massive slump, the supplies specialist energy ink shows signs of a revival in the business with inks and toners. Demand is not only driven by the move to the home office, but also by delivery difficulties of the OEMs.

    The supplies specialist energy ink also felt Corona clearly. “Since we mainly look after the specialist trade and their ink walls, the lockdown hit us with full force,” explains Managing Director Björn Martensen. Some customers had set up a delivery service for supplies or sold them through their workshop, so that at least smaller orders were generated. “Due to the rapid increase in demand for supplies for home office and home schooling, we were able to make up for the losses from March and April in the following two months,” reports Martensen. Signs of a revival of the market were already noticeable in April, when common consumables from industry leader HP were hardly available anymore. Through good contacts, however, it was possible to ensure high availability with original goods and is still 95 percent deliverable to date. The current situation continues to affect demand for inks and toners.

    The fact that OEM products were not and are not available means that consumers who normally use OEM supplies are increasingly turning to cheaper alternatives. “Due to the lockdown in the Asian countries, there is still a shortage of some inks and toners on the market, which benefits us,” reports Martensen. Due to the increased print volume in the home area, you can see that empties are becoming increasingly scarce and the prices for recycled cartridges are also increasing.

    In order to cushion the effects of the crisis, energy ink started using new ranges early on. “Especially at the beginning of the pandemic, disinfectants were hardly available. Isopropanol, which is required for production, was also extremely scarce, ”said Martensen. After talking to its ink manufacturer, the supplies specialist decided to have its own disinfectant manufactured. It was important that customers could be offered a premium hand disinfectant that was manufactured and replenished according to the WHO formula. The range is also rounded off by a surface disinfectant based on active chlorine, the anti-infection agent “MediSeptic”, as well as disinfectant and soap dispensers and soaps. An offer that has been well received.
