Epson and Usain Bolt sign EMEAR partnership

October 14, 2021

Eight-time Olympic gold medallist, and widely considered to be the greatest sprinter of all time, Usain Bolt will be the face of a major awareness building campaign for Epson’s cartridge-free EcoTank printers.

Usain will star alongside Epson’s EcoTank in a TV advertising campaign starting later this week in UK and Germany, as well as appearing on billboards, online in website banner ads, on Point-of-Sale in major retail outlets and on social media throughout the rest of the EMEAR region. Bolt will demonstrate in his own light-hearted way that with Epson’s EcoTank printers, you can literally “Just Fill and Chill” for up to three years of cartridge-free no-hassle printing.

Over 60 million EcoTank high-capacity ink tank printers have sold worldwide since their launch in 2010. The printers come with high yield ink bottles instead of cartridges. One set of ink bottles is the equivalent of up to 72 cartridges worth of ink. Epson has recently refreshed its range of EcoTank. All Epson’s new EcoTank printers feature its Micro Piezo Heat-Free Technology so you can enjoy also reduced energy consumption with less need for replacement parts.

Commenting on the partnership, Yoshiro Nagafusa, President of Epson Europe said: “Usain is the perfect partner for us! He is one of the most recognisable people in the world and his engaging character will help bring our low-cost printing solutions to life in a fun, memorable and engaging way. With more of us working from home than ever before, and modern family life getting busier, now is exactly the right time to raise even more awareness of our EcoTank printers and the cost saving benefits they deliver.”

Usain Bolt said: “I’m delighted to be working with Epson to help spread the word about EcoTank printers. I only partner with brands that I believe can make a real difference.

EcoTank printers remove many of the frustrations that exist around printing with cartridges so anything that can help make life a little bit easier has got to be a good thing. But it’s about much more than that! We share many of the same values such as building better futures. For Epson, that’s all about building trust through its products, products that help communities grow and prosper. And for me it’s about inspiring others to follow their dreams, regardless of how big or small they may be.”
