The U.K. magazine The Recycler informed that a local company was able to recycle a laser cartridge for 25 times. The Hewlett Packard mono-laser printer cartridge, owned by The Book Depository located in Gloucester, printed more than a quarter of a million pages. By remanufacturing the cartridge 25 times, The Book Depository has saved £972.50 (EUR1033) at today’s prices, and prevented 27.5 kilos of waste being sent to landfill, where printer cartridges can take 450 years to decompose. It has also saved 64.5kg of CO2 from being emitted into the atmosphere.
