We collect your ink cartridges, which in turn are used to provide both the public and businesses with recycled printer cartridges. This also helps reduce the waste produced from the ink cartridges used and not recycled, as well as generating life saving funds for the Hampshire and Isle of Wight, Wiltshire, and the Yorkshire Air Ambulances.
Over 50 million inkjet cartridges are used in this country every year, yet only around 10% are actually recycled. This equates to around 14,000 tonnes of material that will take at least 1,000 years to biodegrade having been dumped into a landfill site.
Inkjet cartridges place a huge burden on the world's natural resources. Crude oil, metals and their manufacturing processes all take their toll.
Recycling Ink cartridges couldn't be easier
