A Social Business Goal: Making Color Printing More Green

Hewlett-Packard's ink cartridges promise a clear, sharp and vivid range of color. Anyone who has ever printed out a picture from a little league game or a document in the office knows this!

But Paul Nash, Senior Plastics Engineer at HP, is focused on just one color — green. He's helping to develop the HP "closed loop" ink cartridge recycling process. The process combines recycled content from HP ink cartridges with recycled plastic bottle materials to create new Original HP ink cartridges. Paul is also playing a critical role in the development of bioplastics that biodegrade quickly — all in the name of a greener, healthier planet.
