Ink Cartridge Recycling Scheme Helps Secure Samsung Contract

Samsung has been awarded a contract with the State of California which will see it provide new printing services as well as a recycling system which can be used for ink and toner cartridges.

State agencies in the region will be using the printers and related services for the next three to five years after the company developed a programme which focused on cost-savings and energy-efficient features.

Samsung beat off stiff competition, winning against 14 competing bids, to secure the contract which is mandatory for State Agencies and will provide a real boost to the printer giant.

Tim Baxter, president of Samsung Electronics America, said: "At Samsung, we pride ourselves on developing products and solutions that enhance their usability and performance.

"We feel very fortunate to be able to work with NWN to help deliver on our mutual promise of environmental and fiscal responsibility to the State of California."

The contract is available to all local governments, public educational institutions and special districts throughout California.
