INKJET REFILL
Inkjet Refill Drop Boxes
Recycling. Fundraising.
Environmental consciousness is what drives the refill business. Refilling helps the environment by reducing unnecessary waste. Only a small percentage of the inkjet cartridges being purchased worldwide are currently recycled. The rest end up in landfills and will never decompose.
-
• In 2005, over 60 million new cartridges were sold in Canada.
-
• 300 million cartridges end up in landfills each year.
-
• 3 quarts of oil and other raw materials are used for every new inkjet cartridge produced.
-
• Manufacturing each new printer cartridge produces greenhouse gas emissions.
-
• Industry analysts estimate that a spent ink and toner cartridge can be reused between 4 and 7 times.
Drop boxes are another way to recycle cartridges and fundraise for your school, charity or office social committee.
How does the Drop Box work?
1. Contact Inkjet Refill for a drop box.
2. Simply place a drop box in a high traffic area of your school, office building, grocery store or other location.
3. Deposit your used cartridges in the drop box and encourage everyone to do the same with a variety of communication – email, posters, announcements, newsletters, contests… Be creative!!
4. Gather the collected cartridges and Inkjet Refill stores will pick them up weekly.
5. Enjoy the benefit of receiving money back for your school or charity group and helping our environment!
