How are the Envirotech Cartridges made:?
At Ecotech, the production of our Envirotech cartridges begins with our dedicated collection program, where we actively seek and collect empty genuine cartridges, valuing them for their exceptional build quality. Once collected, each cartridge undergoes a rigorous assessment process to determine its eligibility for refurbishment. Those that pass our stringent quality checks are then expertly rebuilt, ensuring they meet the high-performance and reliability standards that our customers have come to expect. Our meticulous rebuild process not only ensures top-tier quality and performance but also contributes to reducing waste and conserving resources, aligning with our commitment to providing eco-friendly printing solutions.
Why does Ecotech believe they have the most eco-friendly cartridge collection?
Ecotech firmly believes in championing the most eco-friendly cartridge collection in the industry, standing distinctly apart from other mainstream cartridge collection programs. While other programs, often funded by major brands like Canon, HP, and Lexmark, primarily focus on collecting cartridges to crush and recycle them, our philosophy pivots on a 'Reuse First' model. At Ecotech, cartridges collected are diligently assessed for their potential to be refurbished and reused, thereby prolonging their lifecycle and preserving the embedded energy and materials. Only when a cartridge cannot be successfully rebuilt, it is then sent off to be responsibly recycled. By prioritizing reuse, we substantially mitigate waste and conserve more resources than conventional recycling, amplifying our commitment to sustainable and eco-friendly practices.
Will using envirotech void my warranty?
Rest assured, using Envirotech cartridges will not void your printer warranty. It's essential to note that it is against consumer law to void a warranty simply by using third-party supplies. Envirotech cartridges are constructed using genuine shells, meaning mechanically, they are identical to original cartridges. However, it is worth noting that if an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) supplier observes non-OEM cartridges in your machine, they may attribute any issues to the use of those cartridges. If maintaining your warranty is paramount—and indeed, warranties can be quite valuable—we recommend utilizing the genuine cartridges that we also provide at competitive prices, allowing them to enter our circular economy. Once your warranty period concludes, making the switch to Envirotech cartridges can be a smooth, eco-conscious transition to continue supporting sustainable practices while enjoying high-quality printing.
