Info Behind Recycling:
Paper recycling is the process of recovering waste paper and remaking it into new paper products. There are three categories of paper that can be used as feedstocks for making recycled paper: mill broke, pre-consumer waste, and post-consumer waste.[1] Mill broke is paper trimmings and other paper scrap from the manufacture of paper, and is recycled internally in a paper mill. Pre-consumer waste is material that was discarded before it was ready for consumer use. Post-consumer waste is material that was discarded after actually being used by a consumer. The grades of post-consumer recycled paper are O.C.C (old corrugated containers), W.C.C (waxed corrugated containers), O.N.P (old newspapers), O.M.G (old magazines), O.T.D (old telephone directories), and R.M.P (residential mixed paper).[2] Paper suitable for recycling is called "scrap paper".
