H-P Expands Cartridge Recycling Program

Computer manufacturer looks to grow its ink recycling program throughout North America and Europe.

Hewlett-Packard announced that more than 10 million HP LaserJet print cartridges were recycled globally last year through the HP Planet Partners supplies recycling program. This record number represents 26 million pounds of consumer and commercial print cartridge materials.

In addition, HP announced the expansion of inkjet cartridge recycling in the United States and the creation of a new HP inkjet cartridge recycling program in Canada.

Launched in 1991, the HP Planet Partners supplies recycling program enables free and convenient recycling of original HP LaserJet supplies. Since the inception of this program, more than 150 million pounds of HP LaserJet print cartridge materials have been recycled and recovered worldwide.

Currently HP LaserJet print cartridge recycling programs are available in 48 countries around the world.

"Our commitment to the environment means being a leader in the development of environmentally sustainable business solutions," said Pradeep Jotwani, senior vice president, supplies, HP Imaging and Printing Group. "The success and expansion of our recycling programs is a testament to our long-standing commitment to the environment and customers today and into the future."

Building on the achievements of HP LaserJet print cartridge recycling efforts, HP expanded inkjet cartridge recycling into Canada and has added capacity to its inkjet cartridge recycling facilities in the United States.

Currently, HP offers inkjet cartridge recycling in 11 countries worldwide, including France, the United Kingdom and Germany.
