Environmental Impact of Print Cartridges:
- Over 375 million cartridges are throw into the trash every year in the U.S. alone! These cartridges then end up in landfill sites or in incinerators.
- In 1978 we had 20,000 operational landfills. Now only 6,000 are remaining. Within the next 4 years, 33% of the 6,000 remaining landfills are expected to be shut down!
- It takes almost a gallon of oil to make a new toner cartridge. By recycling, we conserve natural resources & energy by reducing the need for virgin materials.
- Plastics used in print cartridges have a very slow decomposing rate. It can take between 450 to 1000 years to decompose depending on the cartridge type!
By returning cartridges & purchasing remanufactured & compatible cartridges, you are supporting thousands of manufacturing jobs in the U.S. Our “Focus Brand” inkjet cartridges are Proudly remanufactured in the U.S.A. along with post-consumer recycled packaging.
