Recycling and Remanufacturing Process

GO GREEN!!!
Below is a listing of the Recycling and Remanufacturing Process Caboodle Cartridge go through for our ink cartridges and laser toner products. 

End-of-Life
6-Step Cartidge Grinding Process

	1. Cartridge Evaluation All inbound units are inspected and designated for remanufacturing or grinding.
	2. Cartridges Disassembled End-of-life units are disassembled.
	3. Cartridges Sorted Components (plastic, blades, gears and PCR drums) are sorted for recycling
	4. Griding Cartidge plastic is inducted into the grinder to produce plastic regrind.
	5. Plastic Ready for Reuse Plastic regrind is reused in various injection molding process.
	6. New Product Development New product is created utilizing post consumer waste which completes the closed loop process.

8-Step Ink Cartridge
Remanufacturing Process

	1. INCOMING RAW MATERIALS INSPECTION Each cartridge goes through a visual inspection and the circuits are testedwith an electrical tester to verify that they are of the highest quality.
	2. AUTOMATED CARTRIDGE PREPARATION Using custom built automated equipment, each cartridge is robotically opened,contents cleaned and inner foam removed.
	3. PREPARATION & CLEANING Highly trained technicians clean andempty each cartridge of remaining waste ink with custom- designed high capacity cleaning systems and prepare thecartridges for filling.
	4. DIGITAL AUTO FILLING Using proprietary filling techniques and custom-built filling machinery, each cartridge is filled to OEM specications with custom-formulated ink.
	5. SEALING A state-of-the-art sealing process ensures a leak-proof cartridge and a clean installation for the customer.
	6. 100% POST TESTING Each and every cartridge is post tested, utilizing industry standard print tests toensure outstanding performance andquality. As a second level of quality control, two statistical checks are performed before each shipment leaves.
	7. PACKAGING Cartridges are cleaned, polished, heat sealed in a vapor resistant bag and boxed.
	8. QUALITY CONTROL Each step in our production process is monitored by dedicated Quality Control experts. Work in progress undergoes regular and spot inspections to ensure our products meet the expectations of the consumer.

10-Step Laser Toner
Remanufacturing Process

	1. INCOMING RAW MATERIALS INSPECTION All incoming materials: drums, toner, blades, PCRs, magnetic rollers, etc. are veried against stringent standards before they reach the production foor.
	2. SORT & GRADE All empty cartridges are sorted and graded. Only premium empty cartridges are used to ensure optimal quality.
	3. RECYCLE All packaging materials, used hoppers and non-conforming components are disassembled and recycled.
	4. SPLIT & CLEAN Empty cartridges are carefully disassembled and cleaned using a proprietary state-of-the-art process. Hopper's are precisely split using custom built automated equipment.
	5. DIGITAL AUTO FILLING Using automated lling equipment developed in-house, each cartridge is precisely lled to the exact specied weight. Toner hoppers are lled with premium toners, which are technically matched to the OPCs (drum) for optimal yields and printer performance.
	6. SEALING Each toner hopper is sealed with an OEM style seal. Our quality sealing process ensures a leak-proof cartridge that is easy for the consumer to install.
	7. ASSEMBLY Our factory-trained technicians assemble all cartridges with OEM grade compatible components (up to 75% new components are used in each cartridge.) The assembly process includes the installation of a pre-qualied drum, wiper blade, doctor blade, PCR and magnetic roller.
	8. 100% POST TESTING Each and every cartridge is post tested utilizing industry standard print tests to ensure outstanding performance and quality.
	9. PACKAGING All cartridges receive a final inspection to ensure they conform to our stringent quality standards. Cartridges are cleaned, polished, heat-sealed in a static resistant bag and boxed. A full set of instructions and warranty information is included.
	10. QUALITY CONTROL Each step in our manufacturing process is monitored by dedicated Quality Control experts. Each step in our production process undergoes regular and spot inspections to guarantee that our products meet the expectations of the consumer.
