About Printer Cartridges

  • Australians throw away more than 18 million printer cartridges every year.
  • This amounts to over 5,000 tonnes of material, including laser toner cartridges, inkjet cartridges, photocopier toner bottles and drums, that will eventually end up in landfill.
  • When printer cartridges break apart in landfill, they have the potential to contaminate groundwater and the environment.

About Printer Cartridge Recycling

  • All types and brands of printer cartridges used in printers, photocopiers, multi-function centres and fax machines can be placed in the 'Cartridges 4 Planet Ark' bin.
  • This includes inkjet cartridges, laser cartridges, toner bottles, fuser and drum units, fax rolls, print heads, waste hoppers / containers collectors & kits.
  • All of the printer cartridges recycled by Planet Ark's partner Close the Loop® are done so with zero waste to landfill. To date this industry-funded Planet Ark program has recycled more than 4 million cartridges via 15,000 businesses and over 2,300 retail outlets.
