Why recycle and use re-manufactured cartridges,
because ......
3 Million
Cartridges End Up As Landfill in Australia Each Year
Currently, all new
cartridges sold in Australia are fully imported, and the jobs
and profits are accordingly exported.
The choice to
re-manufacture, recycle or purchase new is yours to make, but
it may surprise you to learn that no
Brand New toner cartridges are made in Australia.
There may some
that appear to be Brand New, Original Equipment Manufacturer
(OEM) style glossy packaging etc. There are still others
that may imply that they are New by omitting words like
"re-manufactured" from their packaging, but the
truth is that all Brand New
cartridges are fully imported.
Only 10 to 15% of
these are subsequently remanufactured in Australia. The
rest ending up as landfill. That adds up to a lot of
plastic (up to 1kg), aluminium (up to .25kg) and oil (up to 3
litres) per cartridge being dumped in our back yard.
Toner Action is
Australian employing Australian's. Imagine how many more
would be working if we as Australians re-manufactured 80% of
cartridges rather than the 10 to 15% currently.
In the United
States almost 35 million kilograms of waste (including over 73
million litres of oil - visualize that!!!) from used toner
cartridges is 'rescued' each year from landfill be
-remanufacturing. (information source:
