Return scheme for print cartridges
Xerox, through its authorised distributor Image Systems Limited, have
launched the Green World Returns Programme for Malta and Gozo, part of a
worldwide scheme.
The scheme will cover all Xerox print and copy cartridges, toner containers
and waste toner purchased from Image Systems.
Xerox has developed well-established methods for collecting and reprocessing
spent print/copy consumables. The returned product is cleaned, inspected and
then remanufactured or recycled.
For some of the most popular product families, Xerox has in place a closed
loop recycling process which enables scrap plastic from damaged cartridges to be
re-ground, re-qualified, and moulded into the same parts.
These parts – made of 100 per cent recycled plastic – are then used in
manufacturing new cartridges.
