Beyond Cartridges:
Reimagining the Printing Paradigm
HP's commitment to sustainability goes beyond simply reducing paper usage. The company has revolutionised the printing experience with its innovative cartridge-free Ink Tank and Instant Ink systems, significantly reducing waste and environmental impact.
Ink Tank Printers
These printers eliminate the need for single-use cartridges. Instead, they utilise refillable ink tanks, drastically reducing plastic waste and lowering the overall environmental footprint.
Instant Ink
This subscription service automatically delivers ink before you run out, eliminating the need for unnecessary cartridge purchases and associated packaging waste. Additionally, HP recycles used ink cartridges through its free cartridge return program, further minimising waste.
Sustainable Materials:
From Ocean to Office
HP is leading the charge in incorporating recycled and sustainable materials into its printing solutions. This commitment extends beyond paper, as the company embraces innovative approaches like:
Ocean-bound Plastics
HP incorporates ocean-bound plastics collected from beaches and waterways into several printer models. This not only gives new life to plastic waste but also helps prevent it from polluting the environment.
Post-consumer Recycled Content
The majority of our print range and all new generation models utilise post-consumer recycled plastic in their construction, diverting waste from landfills and reducing reliance on virgin materials.
FSC-certified Paper
HP actively promotes sustainable forestry practices by offering a wide range of FSC-certified papers. This ensures responsible paper sourcing and protects valuable forest ecosystems.
Energy Efficiency:
Printing Without Powering Up
HP understands that energy efficiency plays a crucial role in sustainable printing. The company's printers are designed with energy-saving features like:
Auto-off and sleep modes
These features automatically put the printer in a low-power state when not in use, significantly reducing energy consumption.
Duplex printing
Encouraging double-sided printing reduces paper usage and associated environmental impact.
Energy Star certification
Many HP printers are Energy Star certified, ensuring they meet strict energy efficiency standards.
Beyond the Printer:
A Holistic Approach to Sustainability
HP's commitment to sustainability extends beyond its products and services. The company actively promotes responsible printing practices through initiatives such as:
HP Planet Partners
This program offers free and convenient recycling options for used cartridges and electronic waste, ensuring proper disposal and minimising environmental impact.
Forest Conservation
HP supports various forest conservation initiatives, including planting trees and protecting endangered ecosystems.
Sustainable Supply Chain
HP works closely with its suppliers to implement sustainable practices throughout its supply chain, minimising the environmental footprint of its operations.
