Recycled CDs and Computer Disks:
Same Quality, Cheaper Price
There are a handful of companies that
are recycling CDs, floppy & tape disks, and video & audio tapes.
These companies are taking back used or end of market electronic
media and manufacturing the materials into new products.
Why should I Buy Recycled Disks?
- They are Generally Cheaper – Because manufactures don’t
have to pay for raw materials the products can cost less than new
disks.
- Help Reduce Waste - End
users throw away well over 1 billion each year.1
In landfills, diskettes take over 450 years to decompose and
may eventually leach oxides into local water supply.
Buying recycled electronic media diverts toxins from the waste
stream and saves raw materials.
