Recycling of Printed Products

 

The original project enjoyed the support of the European Commission via the Leonardo Programme. It aims at stimulating cooperation and research on environmental, educational or industrial subjects among European partners. The Swedish paper industry, mainly SCA and their mill in Ortviken and Aylesford Newsprint, has supported the project with knowledge and information. Svenskt Papper AB has also supported the project.

 

The project does not aim at reporting about the latest scientific developments in the field of paper recovery and recyclability. The findings of different scientific reports were taken into consideration. The purpose is to identify problem areas in the field of collected waste paper and to suggest solutions to reduce their impact on the paper recycling process. In 2008 Intergraf undertook to produce an updated version.
