Our Remanufacturing Philosophy

Respect the structure and integrity of the original used cartridge and maximise its future usefulness through the entire remanufacturing process.
Reuse as much of the empty, used cartridge as possible and ensure the worn-out components and parts are recycled and do not end up in landfill.
Implement environmentally safe production practices throughout the remanufacturing process.

Remanufacturing Ink Cartridges

1

Sorting & Grading All incoming raw materials undergo rigorous inspection, sorting, and grading process by skilled technicians before they head off to the production lines. Only superior empty cartridges are reused. All others are broken down for their plastics and metals and sent to accredited recyclers.

3

Auto Cleaning With G&G’s advanced automated equipment, each cartridge goes through a 3-step cleaning process to ensure no waste ink or other contaminants remain.
4

Auto Drying Each empty cartridge is completely dried in G&Gs automated self-dryer process line to prevent any damage to the shell casing.
5

Auto Ink Filling Using cutting-edge, automated filling technologies, each cartridge is filled precisely to the specified amount with high-quality, OEM-equivalent ink.
