Recycling Activities

As an integral part of our commitment to environmental conservation and advancing the circular economy, we actively collaborate with customers, communities and industry partners to collect and recycle end-of-life products.

Hardware Recycling

TechCollect NZ is offering a free service available to households and small businesses looking to recycle responsibly. For useful information, including your nearest drop-off location, please refer to TechCollect NZ's website.

If you have large-sized printers, please call Epson Customer Service at 0800 237 766 for advice on e-waste recycling options.

Cartridge Recycling

We take environmental responsibility seriously and encourage customers to join us in this effort. Recycling your used cartridges reduces the amount of waste to landfill and enables the recycle of materials in creating various new products.

Households and Small Businesses

Retailers such as Warehouse Stationery and Harvey Norman are providing recycling collection services for expended and unwanted cartridges. You can inquire about these services at your nearest retailer, conveniently located nationwide.

Medium and Large Sized Businesses

If you can collect more than three (3) cartridges, ink packs, bags and bottles in a month, you may be eligible to have a free collection box in your workplace. You can also encourage your employees, customers or community to participate by bringing in their used cartridges from home to recycle. Together, we can help diverting used ink cartridges from landfill and turn them into other products.

Projector Lamp Recycling

Consumers can return their old projector lamps – and not just Epson, but any brand – to one of Epson authorised service agents throughout New Zealand.

The lamps are sent to a recycling site where they are crushed and separated – environmentally sensitive chemicals are removed and other components are melted down for reuse.

To recycle your lamps:

Consumers: You can drop off your used projector lamps at any Epson's authorised Service Partner. All projector lamps regardless of manufacturer are accepted. To find your nearest collection point please call Epson Customer Service on 0800 237 766.

Epson's Authorised Service agents: Please follow the usual process that is in place for warranty parts returns by emailing warrantyrtns@epson.com.au including the number of cartons of faulty/unused parts and lamps, as well as the weight of each carton. We will then organise a courier pickup for the disposal or recycling of the parts and lamps.

Other businesses: Recycling is a collective effort. Thank you for playing a part in this. Please pack the used lamps in a carton and contact warrantyrtns@epson.com.au to organise a courier pickup. Provide your location, number of cartons, as well as the weight of each carton.
