Recycling Your Ink Cartridges

Recycling Ink – from time to time we get asked about this and thought we’d shed some light on this for all our dedicated and environmentally friendly customers.

Reasons Why?

Environment

The main reason is that recycling your empty ink cartridge is the environmentally friendly thing to do. Leaving your ink cartridge to rot in land fill will take up to 800 years to bio degrade, even then the chemicals from the cartridge go into the earth which can pollute ground water. To put that into perspective, that means if Christopher Columbus left his HP 21 ink cartridge lying around it would still be here today for all to see.

Recycling Ink Helps Charity!

With each ink cartridge that is returned to us we give money to charity through our Caring For Kids scheme. Our most recent donation was five hundred and sixty pounds which we sent to great ormond street children’s hospital.

Saving Money by Recycling Ink

Help recycling through buying recycled products. Most of the time you’ll find more ink or toner in compatible cartridges than the originals and it will cost you less. All our compatible ink cartridges come fully guaranteed against faulty printing performance but if for whatever reason you are not happy then you can exchange or refund your order as you require.

Recycling Ink – How?

With all ink cartridges which have value and we would like to have back we send a freepost recycling bag out with your order. All you have to do is place your empty ink cartridges into this bag and pop it in the post, then leave the rest up to us! Sending ink cartridges which we do not want back will cost the charity money so please do not send us back your unwanted ink cartridges unless your order came with a freepost recycling bag.

Final Thoughts

We’d like to thank all our customers who read our Blog Posts and are commit themselves to making the world a cleaner place to live in. The next time your about to throw your ink cartridges away just remember that by returning your empty ink cartridge to us not only will you be helping the environment but you will be helping the lives of small underprivileged children better as well.
