Card and Paper Recycling

Recycling materials has become a top priority for many businesses and households. With Europe being a world leader for card and paper recycling with a staggering 72% of paper and card waste making its way into recycled materials, it’s important to be environmentally aware.

Awareness of our carbon footprint and the damage we’re doing to the environment has sparked a number of recycling schemes including the Melton Business Improvement District (BID). At Melton Waste & Recycling, we’re proud to be the leading contractor for the collection and disposal of cardboard and paper and helping the environment; for every tonne of paper that we recycle, we’re saving 17 trees!

With card capable of being recycled up to 10 times, there’s no reason why we can’t invest in our recycling and help the environment and local community. Use this card and paper recycling service to recycle all types of paper and cardboard from your home, business, factory or school.

How is card and paper recycled?

Paper can be turned into lots of products including, newsprints, office paper, labels, bags and gift cards.

The paper and card collected from your home is first separated into different types and grades. It is then pulped with water and chemicals to separate the fibres and screened to remove inks, plastic film, paper clips, staples and glue.
