Recycle your cartridge



Did you know?

  • It takes about a gallon of oil to make a new laser cartridge.
  • About eight cartridges are thrown away per second in the United States.
  • In North America alone over 350 million cartridges per year are discarded in our landfills, and that number increases by 12 percent annually!
  • A laser cartridge thrown into a landfill can take up to 450 years decompose. Some components made of industrial grade plastics will take over a thousand years to decompose.
  • Every re-manufactured cartridge saves nearly 3 and 1/2 pounds of solid waste from being deposited in landfills.
  • 70 percent of used printer cartridges throughout the world are currently being thrown out.
  • In one year, if the world's discarded cartridges were stacked end-to-end, they would circle the earth over three times.

Reuse your printer cartridge and help protect the environment. Loveland now has a Cartridge World that offers refills.

Take advantage of it and save money too! Every cartridge refilled costs at least 1/3 less than a brand new one.

They guarantee every cartridge they sell and back it by a 100% satisfaction. Click on the link below to save on your printing needs.
