Nearly a million empty toner cartridges are thrown away in the United States each day.
Recycling keeps large amounts of plastics out of landfills. Every year over 300 million cartridges are thrown away in North America. This means for each toner cartridge, about 2.5 pounds of non-biodegradable plastic is thrown into a landfill. It will never go away!
Recycling saves natural resources. The plastic in each toner cartridges takes three and a half quarts of oil to produce, and each new inkjet cartridge requires two and a half ounces of oil. A recycled cartridge requires less than 1 quart of oil to be able to be reused. Recycling saves over two quarts of oil per cartridge. This year alone, toner cartridge remanufacturing will save over 11,000,000 gallons of oil.
In addition to the obvious environmental benefits, using remanufactured or compatible toner cartridges from a reputable source can generally save you or your company between 30% and 60% off new OEM toner cartridge prices and provide a better warranty without sacrificing quality.
