We are committed to helping our customers recycle responsibly. Our product recycling goal is to recycle 1.2 million tonnes of hardware and supplies by 2025 since the beginning of 2016, and we’ve recycled 395,200 tonnes through 2018. More than 80% of our ink cartridges and 100% of HP LaserJet toner cartridges are now manufactured with recycled content,1 and we have used over half a million pounds of ocean-bound plastic to make Original HP ink cartridges. Our product repair, reuse, and recycling programs help to ensure that products and materials are re-purposed, to keep materials at their highest value state for the longest possible time. These efforts are part of our wider ambitions to transform the business toward an ever more materials-efficient circular model.

California Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003
Consumers
Under the California Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003 (known as SB20), retailers, resellers (and HP Partners) that ship to, sell or lease certain electronic products in California must collect a fee from the consumer at the time of purchase. The fees are collected by the State, and are used to reimburse registered collectors and recyclers for the electronic devices that they collect and recycle in California. For a list of registered recyclers, see http://www.calrecycle.ca.gov/Electronics/Reports/Search.aspx
HP Resellers and Partners
Resellers and Partners may be required to charge this fee to customers on Covered Electronic Devices purchased from HP and remit the fee to the California Board of Equalization. Resellers & Partners are allowed to keep 3% of that fee amount to cover administrative costs. The remainder of the fee must be remitted to the California Board of Equalization. For details on fee remittance, see: http://www.boe.ca.gov/sptaxprog/ewaste.htm
Resellers and HP Partners should monitor the CalRecycle website: http://www.calrecycle.ca.gov/electronics/Act2003/
