Waste paper is any kind of paper, pasteboard, and cardboard that completes its function in any area of use and is discarded. Paper is one of the materials that have an important place in our daily life. Paper whose main material is wood; It is used as newspaper, magazine, wrapping paper, napkin and thrown away. On the other hand, studies on recycling paper continue and unnecessary tree cutting is prevented to some extent.
Paper and cardboard packaging materials, which are turned into bales, are trimmed and reduced in size so that they take up less space and can be easily processed in the recycling facility. It is then subjected to a secondary screening process. After this process, waste papers go to the pulping process. After the pulp is formed, the papers are separated from their inks by applying various bleaching chemicals together with the air. At this stage, the pulp is brought to the desired color. After going through the purification process, it is now suitable for new paper.
We can clearly understand the importance of even a single tree in the difficult period our country is currently in. For this reason, paper and paper packaging recycling now have vital importance for our country. We, as LuxBoxPack, offer creative packaging solutions with products using recyclable materials.
