Paper Recycling - Viridor
Paper and cardboard recycling
70% less energy is needed to make recycled paper.
Paper and cardboard recycling
Our industry has changed. Seeing paper as ‘waste’ is a thing of the past. The world is using resources at an unsustainable rate, and has used as much in the past 50 years as in all previous history.
Paper recycling is growing in popularity, not simply because more paper is being used but because the way we collect and grade paper has become much more sophisticated, efficient and effective. This means far less CO2 is generated and less energy used when making new paper from recycled stock than when using virgin pulp. Viridor has an enviable reputation in the paper recycling industry and we are a leading recycler of all types of paper and cardboard. We collect from printers, direct mail houses, newsprint factories and offices. 100% of the paper we handle in this way is successfully recycled. Each site operates under the highest quality, environmental, energy efficiency, health and safety standards – certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 50001 and OHSAS 18001 respectively. Giving paper and cardboard new life Not only can we collect paper from your business, there are a range of ways we can help you recycle more on-site, from providing a baler up to a full air-blown extraction system. We can also give you peace of mind about where your waste paper ends up through our audited business management system, so you have the reassurance of knowing you have been socially and environmentally responsible. At Viridor we put more of your paper and cardboard back into action and help you recycle as much as possible. Call us for a free waste audit or quote, or visit us online at viridor.co.uk/services
