Free Toner Recycling

Many of us have heard the saying “reduce, reuse, recycle” and are now trying to implement this in their work place. Even so, surprisingly it’s estimated that only 15% of the 65 million toner cartridges sold in the UK every year are reused or recycled. That’s a huge 55 million making their way to landfill every year!

When you consider that it can take 1000 years for plastic casings to fully decompose the environmental impact is truly shocking.

 

We’ll collect your cartridges, for free!

Global Office Supplies’ recycling can collect your used ink and toner cartridges – for free!

Over 85% of the ink and toner units we collect can be remanufactured in the UK to make cost-effective alternative printer products. Only just less than 1% can’t be recycled.

We can even collect your unwanted mobile phones for free too. The number of mobile phones upgraded in the UK every year is estimated to be around 15 million – enough to be laid end-to-end from John O’Groats to Land’s End!

Every mobile phone we collect goes through a repair and cleaning process, with a full history check to ensure it hasn’t been lost or stolen. If a mobile phone can’t be fixed it’s recycled into secondary metal and plastic products.
