CASEY residents have saved the equivalent of 24 backyard pools of waste from landfill.
Statistics from Planet Arc’s product stewardship program, ‘Cartridges 4 Planet Ark’ shows Casey residents and businesses recycled 25,541 printer cartridges in the past year.
This means 260,506 printer cartridges have been saved from clogging up landfill sites since 2003 by Casey residents.
If sent to landfill, printer cartridges can take between 450 and 1000 years to break down.
