Since 1992, HP has offered HP LaserJet supplies return and recycling free of charge in 86%
of the world market where HP LaserJet supplies are sold. Postage-paid and pre-addressed
labels are included within the instruction guide in most HP LaserJet print cartridge boxes.
Labels and bulk boxes are also available through the Web
More than 10 million HP LaserJet print cartridges were recycled globally in 2002 through the
HP Planet Partners supplies recycling program. This record number represents 26 million
pounds of print cartridge materials that were diverted from landfills. Worldwide, HP recycled
an average of 80% of the print cartridge by weight, consisting primarily of plastic and metals.
Recycled plastics and metals are used to make new products, such as HP products, plastic
trays, and spools. The remaining materials are disposed of in an environmentally
responsible manner.
