By the end of 2009, the industry is forecasting the usage of ink cartridges used worldwide will exceed 2 billion (2000 million) Inkjet cartridges.

The number of Print Cartridges used daily worldwide use large quantities of oil to produce and if sent to landfill can take up to 1000 years to decompose.

It is environmentally friendly to have a collection point in your school for recycling your print cartridges. Bring them in from home as well and Folamh will collect them free of charge.
