More must be done to encourage people to recycle their empty printer ink cartridges – that’s the message from a new study on consumer behaviour.
The study by Cartridge World USA has revealed that one printer ink cartridge is thrown away every eight seconds in the US, and globally three quarters of all ink cartridges used end up on landfill.
In recent years there has been a huge international effort to reverse the trend, lead by charities, ink cartridge retailers and environmental organisations but the number of cartridges entering landfill continues to increase.
Cartridges can be easily recycled or even re-filled meaning that there is no excuse for dumping them. Some organisations even offer a financial incentive to return them for recycling.
One internet based retailer, ThePrintInk.com, offers refill kits to help reduce cartridge wastage – as well as providing a huge range of printer and fax cartridges, toners and photo paper.
The online store is a one-stop shop for printing supplies, offering significant savings on the retail value of top brands which cannot be matched by any other site.
ThePrintInk offers the widest choice of printing cartridges and supplies from 28 of the best known brands on the market (from Apple, Brother and Canon to HP, Lexmark, Ricoh and Xerox), and even some of the not so well known ones.
ThePrintInk also supplies replacement and recycled ink cartridges and these can be significantly cheaper than new cartridges, offering savings of up to 80% with no loss of quality.
If you need an inkjet cartridge, a laser toner cartridge, fax cartridges or photo paper you won’t find a better choice, or price, anywhere else.
A reduced printing bill can help to save your business money and allow you to create more literature to promote your services.
