Why is paper recycling so important?

Each year the UK uses and disposes of 10 million tonnes of paper, making up 20% of all UK waste. The trees used to produce this paper could cover an area as large as the entire country of Wales.

The immense demand and waste associated with paper use can be mitigated through effective paper recycling.

At Recorra, we are doing our part. Beginning as a charity paper recycling initiative over 20 years ago, we are experts in turning wastepaper into high quality office paper in our truly circular process.

By providing a separate paper collection, your business will preserve the quality of paper by entirely avoiding any contaminants common in mixed recycling.
