    Cartridge info

    What materials go into making HP ink and LaserJet cartridges?

    You can download material safety data sheets for a detailed look at the materials used in various printing supplies.

    Does HP use recycled materials in Original HP cartridges and supplies packaging?

    Yes, HP uses recycled materials extensively in packaging, including recycled content paperboard, corrugated cardboard and recycled plastic. HP has produced more than 3.9 billion Original HP ink and toner cartridges that contain recycled plastic. Today more than 80% of Original HP ink cartridges and 100% of Original HP toner cartridges are now manufactured with recycled content. All HP cartridges and packaging are designed with sustainability in mind. 88% of Original HP Ink Cartridges contain between 5-75% post-consumer recycled content. 100% of Original HP Toner Cartridges contain between 1-79% post-consumer or post-industrial recycled content. Does not include toner bottles, ink bottles, and other products not listed. See www.hp.com/go/recycledcontent for list. *

    How do I know whether I'm returning an ink cartridge or a toner cartridge?

    Each Original HP cartridge should indicate on the packaging whether it is an ink cartridge or LaserJet toner cartridge. Also, ink cartridges are smaller and squarer, whereas LaserJet cartridges are much longer in length.

    Do HP cartridges qualify for California's State Agency Buy Recycled Campaign (SABRC)?

    Yes, all Original HP LaserJet cartridges and most original HP ink cartridges (see a list of non-returnable supplies) are now classified as recycled products for the California State Agency Buy Recycled Campaign (SABRC) reporting. See list of SABRC qualified product numbers (PDF) and SABRC product certification letter (PDF).


    This is in accordance with the state statute, SB 1106, that went into effect on January 1, 2006. Since HP offers a free and convenient end-of-life return and recycling program to customers, these products now qualify as recycled products and can be included in state agencies' monthly totals of SABRC recycled product purchases. California state entities can take advantage of competitive pricing on a broad range of products, including all HP printer supplies, through the California Strategic Sourcing Initiative (CSSI) office supplies contract provided by the Department of General Services. HP printer supplies are also available from other office and computer products dealers across the state.
