Roland Launches Canadian Cartridge Recycling Program

Roland DGA Corp. has introduced a cartridge recycling program for the company's inkjet customers located in Canada.

The new program joins Roland's US cartridge recycling program and a host of other environmental initiatives across the Americas and worldwide. Recycling of cartridges is now available in the U.S. and Canada for all Roland wide-format inkjet printers and printer/cutters including eco-solvent, solvent, sublimation, UV, and aqueous models.

"Having a dedicated Canadian recycling program further reduces our carbon footprint by allowing customers to recycle regionally instead of shipping cartridges to the US," said Rick Scrimger, vice president and general manager for Roland DGA Corp. "Having three collection points in Canada makes it even more convenient and cost effective to participate. We encourage all our customers to help protect the environment by recycling their cartridges."

To take part in the program, Roland inkjet customers across Canada can ship cartridges to state-of-the-art facilities located in Burnaby, BC, Barrie, ON and Ville St-Laurent, QC. In addition, many Roland Canadian dealers are offering a drop off point for their customers. Complete instructions including packaging guidelines and shipping labels can be downloaded from the Roland website.
