Waste paper: paper recycling as an alternative to fresh fiber Used locally, marketed worldwide Graphic papers, newspapers, packaging - paper is always present in our daily life. With a consumption of around 23 million tons, Germany is one of the strongest users - but it is also particularly committed to paper recycling. Collection, sorting and recycling result in a material that is in great demand. The paper specialists in the ALBA Group know the needs of the market and are familiar with the more than 80 standard types of paper used throughout Europe. This is how we support our customers in fully exploiting the potential of recycling raw materials. Defined qualities for paper mills The material comes from the household paper collection, mostly known as the blue bin , as well as from industrial sources such as print shops, retailers or public administrations. It is sorted using the latest technology in the ALBA Group's facilities . This creates various usable fractions, for example cardboard, sorted mixed waste paper or de-inking goods (sorted graphic paper, newspapers and magazines). These fractions are then pressed into bales and delivered for recycling. Customers include paper mills all over Germany, Europe and overseas.
