We Produce Semi-Finished Jumbo Reels
for Paper Converters.
From collected used products we produce semi-finished jumbo reels in defined sizes and properties, using recycled pulp and cellulose. These reels are then converted into more than 600 product types at different grammages: paper towels, napkins, toilet paper, dispenser napkins, Z-fold napkins and dispenser towels.
- Processed reels reuse waste paper and help protect natural resources.
- Recycled paper production uses less energy than virgin production, so we save energy.
- We reduce waste by keeping waste paper out of landfills.
