More than 500 million OEM toner and inkjet cartridges are manufactured every year. If these cartridges are not diverted from our landfills, this equals to almost 1,000 tons of unnecessary pollution that can enter our waste stream every day. In addition to this potential waste, more than three quarts of oil are consumed during the manufacturing of every OEM cartridge. This equals to more than 375,000,000 gallons of oil consumed every year to make toner and inkjet cartridges. Even worse than these staggering atrocities is that many cartridges end up in cities like Guiyu, China where they are incinerated or dissolved with hazardous chemicals to extract residual metals. These processes contaminate the local air, soil and groundwater and one in ten children in Guiyu have birth defects due to this horrific pollution.
The Imaging Supplies purchased from LazerCorp. are environmentally friendly. LazerCorp conserves nature's resources by reusing certain non-wearing plastic shells and metal components from used OEM cartridges. LazerCorp is proud to offer more than 100,000 environmentally conscious toner and inkjet cartridges every month. We are proud to offer additional recycling services for your used and/or surplus imaging supplies. Please attempt to bundle as many empty toner and inkjet cartridges when shipping back for recycling. You may also add used cell phones in the box (please do not include the battery). Help us preserve our environment for generations to come. Please reduce, reuse and recycle.
What do we do with items returned for recycling? Returned supplies are sorted and shredded. Plastics and metals from recycled print cartridges have been used to make a range of everyday new products such as auto body parts, clothes hangers, fence posts, microchip processing trays, roof tiles, serving trays, shoe soles, and spools. No returned cartridges are sent to landfill.
