ICE’S COMMITMENT TO THE ENVIRONMENT

 Consider these facts

• ·         More than 300 million printer cartridges end up in our landfills on a yearly basis. That translates into more that $450 million being thrown away.

• ·         Approximately 90% of printer cartridges are recyclable but on 20% are being recycled. Excess ink and toner residue can filter into our water supply.

• ·         More than two ounces of oil are used for the production of every inkjet cartridge. That means we’re going through more than 4,000,000 gallons of oil for single-use cartridges each year.

• ·         The recovery and reuse of empty printer cartridges diverts millions of cubic feet of material from waste disposal saving us the million of tax dollars needed to pay for additional landfill management.

ICE recognizes that business has a direct and indirect impact on the environment. Our goal is to achieve sustainability through calculated decisions, measurable results and direct impact.

 As a remanufacturer, ICE provides an answer for people who are looking to purchase recycled products and to keep their cartridges out of landfills. We offer an alternative to the standard end-of-life model for these items by extending their lifecycle and closing the loop on their production. We take this job seriously and extend it to our business philosophy and practices.
