Nukote Dealer Collection Programs

Nukote is a reverse logistics pioneer and one of the largest collectors of ink jet and laser toner cartridges in the world. Our holistic approach to collection and reuse is based on extensive take-back programs that enable consumers and businesses to return empty cartridges with the guarantee that they will be reused or recycled in an environmentally sound manner.

The SecondNature^SM program is Nukote’s initiative to cultivate environmental sustainability through our products, people and practices. We offer four SecondNature^SM programs tailored to the needs of our clients.
