Recycling Kyocera devices and our toner take back service
We are committed to minimising the impact our products have on the environment throughout their life
To achieve our goals we offer two services, a Kyocera device recycling service and a Toner Take Back service.
Kyocera Device Recycling
In order to reduce the amount of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) that ends up in landfil, we offer a service to your customers to have their Kyocera devices collected for recycling by trusted partners. We have partnered up with B2B Compliance to deliver this service. In accordance with the governments’ WEEE directive, we will bear the cost of the recycling, but please note that there may be a transport fee that is payable by you.

Toner Take Back Service
All Kyocera devices are designed with the environment in mind.
We aim to minimise the impact of our products on the planet by reducing the quantity of raw materials contained within them. Kyocera’s approach to printer design and engineering reduces the number of components in the ECOSYS toner cartridge system by more than 85% on average, consequently reducing the manufacturing and recycling impact of the device.
Kyocera currently offer a returns service for all used, genuine KYOCERA toner cartridges. The moment your empty ECOSYS or TASKalfa consumables enter our system, Kyocera and our recycling partner will manage everything from pick-up to processing toner plastics into graded plastic beads.
After separating the cartridges into individual components, the polymers in the toner cartridge are separated and then granulated and prepared for reuse as “recyclate” which can be added to brand new materials to manufacture a variety of products.
By participating in our Toner Take-Back Service you contribute to reducing waste and energy consumption for a better environment and a better world. The service follows Kyocera’s philosophy of always considering our impact on the environment.
Our toner cassettes and product packaging are 100% recyclable. Kyocera even ID mark product parts for easy recycling.
