Australia will soon have a fair and efficient national recycling scheme for end-of-life televisions and computers with the passage yesterday of the Product Stewardship Bill through the House of Representatives, according to Canon Australia.

Locally and globally Canon is committed to the environment through two key principles of reducing the impact of our own activities and helping customers reduce theirs. Locally Canon is a founding partner of Byteback, a pilot end-of-life take back scheme for IT equipment, and also a founding partner of Cartridges 4 Planet Ark, a national program for recycling laser and inkjet cartridges.
