An
Environmental Issue
Every
year thousands of tons of empty toner and inkjet cartridges
are disposed of and end up in our nation's landfills.
The number is expected to grow significantly in the
years ahead. The plastic used in each printer cartridge
takes more than ten centuries to decompose. As a result,
recycling these cartridges is an important environmental
issue.
Save
Our Environment
Fortunately,
toner cartridges are one of the most convenient office
products to recycle.
A
typical toner cartridge weights about three pounds.
That equates to about 120 million pounds of recyclable
material that can be diverted from landfills each year
with widespread use of cartridge recycling programs.
More than one pint of oil is required to produce each
brand new laser cartridge. Recycling can save millions
of gallons of oil every year.
We
have a great opportunity to be environmentally responsible
in Australia. We need your contribution here!
Help
Our Community
The
process of recycling has many benefits including savings
to the consumer and relief to the environment. Participation
in our recycling program does not prevent you from using
new cartridges.
You
can also help our community by participating in our
recycling program. We will donate to your nominated
charity for every recyclable cartridge collected
from you. (See
how much do we donate for every empty toner cartridge
collected from you?) You can even encourage
your employees, colleagues, families and friends to
bring in their used cartridges from home.
Not
all cartridge types can be recycled, but if you collect
all cartridges, those that can't be recycled will be
disposed of in an environmentally sound manner.
