The Eco-cartridge is made from a sheet of recycled cardboard
With the ever-growing number of products becoming available in recycled materials, office equipment has been one of the last hold-outs.
The Eco-cartridge is a concept version of an ink cartridge that was created by designer Kevin Cheng.
It’s a definite step forward towards sustainability for a product that all too often winds up in landfills.
The Eco-cartridge’s recycled cardboard is lined with a biodegradable laminate that allows it to hold ink without leaking. With the use of a little glue and a plastic port to connect the printer and the cartridge chip, this eco-friendly product would be an excellent alternative to any standard ink cartridge and would be an awesomely sustainable product.
There’s no word yet about production of this product, but we’ll spread the word when some smart, savvy manufacturer takes it on.
