Recycling and the Environment

Every year, more than 300 million plastic printer cartridges end up dumped in landfills in the United States and around the world - almost eight cartridges are thrown away in the United States every second, industry sources say.

Not only do these discarded cartridges take up landfill space and pose a risk to soil and groundwater quality, but the production of new cartridges requires significantly more resources and energy than remanufacturing used cartridges.

According to Lyra Research, in 2002 almost one billion toner and inkjet cartridges were shipped worldwide, and only 13 percent of those were third-party cartridges, many of which were remanufactured.

While we can never completely stop the cycle of cartridges entering the waste stream, we can at least stem the flow.

Every cartridge that we remanufacture is one less going directly to our landfill. For every remanufactured cartridge purchased, it's one less new cartridge that needs to be produced, saving it from entering the waste stream and from draining the planet's natural resources.
