Staples makes recycling easy

Oct 4, 2005

Old ink and toner cartridges are being remanufactured
under the Staples name – or recycled if they are not usable – under a
scheme launched by the office equipment retailer.
Staples says it is the first national retailer in the US
offering a $3 off coupon for each ink or toner cartridge returned to
any of the chain’s 1,200 stores throughout America. The money off
coupon can be used against any future purchase at Staples – either
in-store, by catalogue or on the website.
Dave Perron, executive vice president of merchandising
and supply chain at Staples, said: “This cartridge recycling offer
underscores Staples’ commitment to be the leading destination for
printing supplies. Staples now makes it easy for customers to save even
more when they recycle any cartridge they use for their businesses and
home offices.”
With more than 2,000 SKUs of ink and toner products sold
in stores and online, Staples is, it says, the world’s leading
destination for ink and toner. The firm also backs up its ink and toner
products with an in-stock and low price guarantee.
If Staples is out of stock of a cartridge in a store,
customers can get it delivered fast with free delivery and $10 off or
buy a compatible or remanufactured cartridge with $10 off.
