HP printing supplies returns and recycling program information
Since 1990, the HP Printing Supplies Returns and Recycling Program has collected more than 47
million used LaserJet print cartridges that otherwise may have been discarded in the world's
landfills. The HP LaserJet print cartridges and consumables are collected and bulk shipped to our
resource and recovery partners who disassemble the cartridge. After a thorough quality
inspection, selected parts are reclaimed for use in new cartridges. Remaining materials are
separated and converted into raw materials for use by other industries to make a variety of useful
products.
