Buy and Return HP Latex Ink

As a key channel partner for HP, Computaleta supports and participates in the HP Planet Partners Programme. You can recycle all your HP Latex ink cartridges by simply dropping them into our drop box at every branch location across New Zealand, or you can apply directly for the HP recycling programme.

So far HP have used more than 4.7 million plastic recycled bottles to make their ink cartridges, and more than 875 million HP ink cartridges and toner has been recycled through the programme worldwide.

When you buy HP ink and recycle it through the programme, you are participating in a closed loop circular system. And of course, HP Latex is better for you and the environment!

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.

What happens to cartridges returned though HP Planet Partners?

HP ink cartridges returned through HP Planet Partners go through a multi-phase "closed loop" recycling process. The recycled plastic from empty cartridges is used to create new Original HP cartridges and other everyday products.

Who actually collects and recycles the cartridges?

Computaleta collects these on behalf of HP, or you can apply for the programme directly.  HP then partners with shipping companies to collect and return printing supplies. Once the supplies have been returned, HP works with advanced recycling organizations to recover and recycle materials from empty or used HP printing supplies. Because of their construction, Original HP cartridges cannot be effectively recycled using conventional, commercial processes.

HP’s latest 700 & 800 Series Latex Printers are designed for sustainable impact

In addition to delivering outstanding image quality, consistency, and durability, HP’s latest generation of Latex Inks offer an attractive environmental profile to both print service providers and customers:
