Samsung Starts its Own Recycling Program

Samsung has announced its own recycling program in Canada. The program, called Samsung Take Back and Recycling Program, will be a free service that lets customers return empty Samsung-branded toner cartridges for laser and multi-function printers.

STAR is supported by Canada Post, and will see returned cartridges safely reprocessed into their major usable component materials, like plastic and metals. These bulk, reprocessed materials will then be made available to the market for re-use in creating a range of other products.

To return an empty Samsung toner cartridge, just visit www.samsung.com/ca/star to print out a pre-addressed, pre-paid Canada Post return shipping label, than return the box to any Canada Post Post office or red label letter box.
