RECOVERED PAPER
Recovered paper — cardboard, newsprint, mixed
We buy recovered paper at selected branches. Cardboard, newsprint and mixed paper — settled by grade and cleanliness of the material.
What we buy in recovered paper
Recovered paper is a material that complements our non-ferrous metals, but we handle it professionally. Corrugated cardboard, newsprint and mixed paper are different grades at different prices — sorting at source genuinely raises the value of the delivery.
We serve shops, wholesalers, print shops and manufacturing plants. We take both loose material and finished bales, and for larger, regular quantities we can arrange collection — including alongside non-ferrous collection, when your plant hands over both.
The main grades of recovered paper. Sorting cardboard from mixed raises the price.
Cardboard (corrugated)
Corrugated board and cardboard packaging — the best-priced grade of recovered paper.
Newsprint
Newspapers and press paper — a clean, uniform grade.
Mixed (mixed paper)
Mixed paper from offices and retail — classified below clean cardboard.
Paper bale
Baled material from your plant — ready for collection, priced by grade.
What's in it for you.
Sorting raises the price
Clean cardboard is a higher grade than mixed. We settle them separately, so order at source turns into a genuinely better price.
We take it loose
You don’t need your own baler to sell recovered paper sensibly — we take loose material just as we take finished bales, which are priced by grade.
Collection of regular quantities
Shops, wholesalers and print shops with a repeat stream of cardboard we can collect on standing terms — you know where you stand every week.

Quality standards
We accept recovered paper dry and free of contaminants (film, polystyrene, food waste). Damp or dirty material lowers the grade and the price.
Cardboard separated from mixed and newsprint settles higher. The better sorted the delivery, the simpler the intake and the better the price.
Recovered paper — frequently asked questions
Which branches buy recovered paper?
Recovered paper is accepted only at selected branches. The list of branches that take this material is in the “Where to sell your recovered paper” section on this page; before a larger delivery it is worth confirming intake by phone.
Do you need your own baler to sell recovered paper?
No. We also take recovered paper loose, so you don’t have to have a press of your own. If you have finished bales from your plant, they are priced by grade.
What is the difference between cardboard, mixed paper and newsprint?
The grade, and that drives the rate. Cardboard (corrugated board and cardboard packaging) is the best-priced grade of recovered paper. Newspapers and press paper are a clean, uniform grade. Mixed — that is, mixed paper from offices and retail — is classified below clean cardboard, which is why sorting at source genuinely raises the value of the delivery.
What lowers the grade of recovered paper?
Above all moisture and contamination. The material is accepted dry and free of film, polystyrene and food waste — damp or dirty material lowers the grade and the price.
Can I hand over recovered paper together with non-ferrous metals?
Yes, if your plant hands over both — at branches that take both materials, recovered paper collection can be linked with non-ferrous collection. Print houses that hand over offset plates and production paper for recycling are served this way, among others.
