Ryman launches ink cartridge recycling scheme
Ryman has launched a new scheme where customers can recycle their used ink cartridges in exchange for rewards.
The move comes as new statistics revealed by the stationer show that 500 million ink and toner cartridges are dumped into landfills each year,
Ryman’s scheme offers customers £1 in Ryman Rewards points for every external print head cartridge they return to stores. These can then be remanufactured and reused. Shoppers will also receive 50p off their next cartridge purchase.
Chloe Danskin, head of marketing at Ryman, said: “We all print things in our daily life, but few of us realise the lasting damage throwing away used cartridges can have on the planet.
“At Ryman, we’re committed to making our planet a better place for everyone, which is why we’ve decided to reward customers for doing their bit too.
“Our recycling scheme is designed to turn everyday waste into everyday rewards, while dramatically cutting down on unnecessary waste. It’s a small change that can make a huge difference to our planet.”
