Year after year, Lexmark product excellence is recognized by trade magazines and industry associations in their respective competitions. Likewise, Lexmark's social awareness and environmental sensitivity is cited by governments and other social entities. Awards from industry experts, conservation groups and trade publications are nice in and of themselves. But moving beyond that surface pleasure, what's really significant to us at Lexmark is that we know that those awards will translate into well served customers who will feel like they received a good value when they purchase one of our products and that they will have supported a socially conscious and environmentally minded company.

The Lexmark Green Award, established in 2009, is a multi-level program to recognize and encourage responsible sustainability and environmental practices. Customers, resellers, partners, suppliers and employees are all eligible for the award.
This year the award is being expanded to recognize specific customer achievements in the areas of paper savings, cartridge returns and energy reductions. Criteria for each category have been set, resulting in Bronze, Silver and Gold award levels.
Close the Loop Wins Award
Lexmark's cartridge recycling partner was the first supplier to receive Lexmark's Green Award in 2010. Close the Loop – a leading global recycler of imaging consumables including inkjet cartridges and laser toner cartridges – has a zero waste to landfill commitment. Lexmark has partnered with Close the Loop since 2002. The company was founded in Australia in 2000 and has since recycled more than 25 million ink and toner cartridges.
