Making the Grade with Cartridge World
World’s
Fastest Growing Ink and Toner Refilling Retailer Offers Affordable and
Environmentally Friendly Alternative to Buying New Cartridges
EMERYVILLE,
Calif. – The new school year is fast approaching and so too is the time
to stock up on pencils, notebooks, backpacks and printer ink
cartridges. While back to school expenses can get costly, Cartridge
World, the world’s fastest growing ink and toner refilling retailer, is
offering a more affordable and environmentally-friendly alternative for
students to stay “ahead of the curve” when it comes to ink cartridges.

With
nearly 650 retail locations nationwide, Cartridge World is encouraging
back-to-schoolers to refill their existing ink cartridges rather than
throw them away or buy brand new ones. Customers can bring their empty
ink and toner cartridges into a local store and have each refilled or
swap out their cartridge for one that is ready to go. All Cartridge
World products come with a 100 percent money-back guarantee on quality
and students and consumer save substantially over buying new name brand
cartridges.

“When students are heading back to school, we want
to encourage them to prepare for the year the green way by refilling
their cartridges instead of buying new,” said Joy James, Senior Vice
President of Cartridge World. “This is the ultimate form of
environmental responsibility, not only recycling but reusing
cartridges.”

Refilling ink cartridges also helps students learn
the importance of reusing and recycling to protect the environment. In
North America alone, more than 350 million cartridges are discarded in
landfills, and that number increases by 12 percent annually. Switching
to remanufactured cartridges not only keeps them out of the landfills,
but also reduces carbon emissions by an estimated one million pounds
per year and conserves half a gallon of oil for each laser cartridge
that is reused and recycled.

This “back to school” season, many
Cartridge World stores are also demonstrating their commitment to the
community with the “Recycle Rewards” program. The program encourages
educational and philanthropic organizations to raise money and save the
environment by collecting empty printer cartridges. Participating
stores will provide local groups with recycle bins, as well as the
resources to run a successful recycle drive. Upon completion of the
drive, Cartridge World will pick up the empty cartridges and write the
organization a check. Interested groups should contact their local
Cartridge World stores to see if the program is available in their
communities.

“Cartridge World is not just selling
environmentally friendly products, we are determined to educate the
community about our services and assist them in their fundraising
efforts, as well,” James added. “We pride ourselves on providing the
best, environmentally-friendly alternative and value the time and
efforts put into enriching future generations.”For more information
