Building Materials

Printer Cartridges Printer CartridgesZoomRecycling of Printer and Photocopier Cartridges

Due to logistical reasons, the Trust no longer provides a centralised recycling facility for printer and photocopier cartridges.  However, there are many recycling schemes available to individuals and organisations and we would encourage you to use these. Details of some of the schemes can be found on the Cartridge Recycling Fact Sheet.
