Refilling

Refilling your empty ink cartridges whenever possible is a much more economically and ecologically sound solution.

With the cost of manufacturers' original branded cartridges so extortionately high, it makes sense to have your empties refilled at Cartridge Direct.  We can quickly and easily refill cartridges for HP, Lexmark, Dell, Samsung, Olivetti & some Canon printers and fax machines.

If you have ever tried filling your own empty cartridges with one of the widely available D.I.Y. refill kits, you will no doubt know how messy and troublesome this can be. Unlike some other cartridge refilling operations, we do not refill by hand with a syringe, and we do not use ‘universal inks’. At Cartridge Direct, we do the filling for you with our purpose built, technologically advanced refilling machines. Our machines first clean your cartridge, removing any excess ink, and then automatically fill your cartridge with a measured dose of the appropriate ink.  All the inks we use are specially formulated to match the inks used in the original cartridges……whether it is for HP or Lexmark……pigment based or dye based.

Whilst you will surely be amazed at the extremely low cost of our refilling service, you will no doubt see the wisdom in the recycling aspect of it. Every year, millions of empty cartridges are discarded and end up in landfill sites where they take hundreds of years to biodegrade. In Europe alone we throw away enough empty cartridges each year to fill the ‘Stade de France!’

You can do your bit for the environment AND save a fortune if you use refills whenever possible
