Help different: Caring for the environment meets social commitment

10/11/2014

More than 100 million ink and toner cartridges are consumed annually in Germany. Most of it ends up in the garbage. Dr. Walser Dental wants to do their part to bring this to an end.

Thus, the trainees of the award-winning Dr. Walser Dental GmbH in Radolfzell have thought about, since for the company not only social engagement, but also the environmental awareness plays an important role: They ordered the "CaritasBox". In this 60 inches high container made of cardboard, used cell phones, toner cartridges and ink cartridges were collected. They are getting recycled, refilled or disposed properly. One phone call and the box gets delivered for free. If it is filled up, it also gets picked-up again for free.

The CaritasBox is a campaign of the Caritas and the INTERSEROH Product Cycle GmbH. We protect the environment and win money for projects that help people in need. Since 2006 until the end of 2013 645,700 euros (net) flowed in social projects locally by this campaign.
