G&G gives insight into its inkjet remanufacturing

July 10, 2023

In a recent article, G&G has been given insights into its processes in its inkjet factory, with a strong view to highlight sustainable practices during processes.

In addition to its article, G&G also revealed a video showing some of the processes and operations inside the factory. Please view the video below:

G&G explained that it uses an extensive array of photovoltaic cells on the roofs of its factories to power the plant from the sun. There are 12,000 square meters of solar panels that capture this clean energy. When the weather is good, up to 300,000 kW of photovoltaic power can be generated each month, providing nearly 10% of the plant’s total electricity needs.

G&G also highlighted that it has invested $1.25 million (€1.14 million) in a 1,500 square meter sewage treatment station. Eight hundred cubic meters of sewage are processed each day, mostly from residual ink captured from cleaning used OEM cartridges for remanufacturing. The project converts dirty and waste water into clean water that can be used to water the flowers and gardens on G&G’s Zhuhai campus.

G&G’s remanufacturing process begins with its empties collection programme. More than 750,000 cartridges from collection agencies around the world arrive at the 12,000 square metre warehouse each month. Trained technicians sort and grade the empties in compliance with rigorous empty cartridge standards.

After being sorted and graded, each inkjet cartridge is cleaned by G&G’s tailor-made, automated production line. G&G explained that this increases efficiency by 20% and saves up to 65% of the water that would have been used by traditional means.
