Recycling Used Cartridges

Canon has instituted a worldwide recycling program for cartridges
called "The Clean Earth Campaign." This program preserves
precious natural resources by utilizing a variety of materials found in
the used cartridges that are of no further use, to remanufacture new
cartridges which, at the same time, keeps the environment cleaner
by reducing landfill waste. Complete details concerning this program
are enclosed in each PC Cartridge box.

The Clean Earth Campaign

● THE Canon CARTRIDGE RECYCLING PROGRAM
The Canon Cartridge Recycling Program fulfills the first initiative of Canon's Clean
Earth Campaign, which supports four critical environmental areas:
● Recycling in the Workplace
● Conserving Environmental Resources
● Scientific Research and Education
● Encouraging Outdoors Appreciation
The remaining "Clean Earth" initiatives are supported in the U.S. through sponsorships
of the National Park Foundation, the National Wildlife Federation, and The Nature
Conservancy and in Canada through donations to the World Wildlife Fund Canada and
The Nature Conservancy of Canada.
Since its inception, The Canon Cartridge Recycling Program has collected millions of
cartridges that otherwise would have been discarded into landfills or similar facilities.
Instead, this rapidly growing program returns used cartridges to the manufacturing
process, thus conserving an array of resources.
