Today, one of the most promising areas of the paper industry is the production of corrugated cardboard. For its manufacture, waste is used, which is formed as a result of previously used cardboard products. The reason for the prospects of the direction is the commercial potential, which is confirmed by waste paper exporters in Canada, in the USA, in other countries. In addition, corrugated cardboard material has many useful properties. In particular, we are talking about the fact that this material is excellent for the manufacture of packaging. Packaging is used for storage and transportation of various goods. An additional plus is environmental friendliness, which is important given the current situation on the planet.

The demand for corrugated cardboard is high. Experts in the study of macroeconomic factors have found that real incomes of the population, the turnover observed in retail trade, as well as the situation in the manufacturing sector have a greater influence on this fact. Until now, there is a shortage of waste paper, which goes to processing enterprises. Namely, these enterprises supply the material that is widely used for the production of corrugated cardboard products. As a result, producers do not have the opportunity to use their production capacities to their full potential. In addition, due to the shortage, waste paper is not cheap. But not even the price plays a role, but the fact that it is not enough.

How to fix the situation?

In order for corrugated board manufacturers to be able to use their full production capacity, it is necessary that the waste paper enter the recycling plants in sufficient quantities. This can help any business that is faced with the formation of a large amount of recycled paper. Especially in the retail sector, there is a situation where used packaging accumulates in huge volumes.

Waste brokers are striving to correct the situation with the supply of the required amount of recycled paper. They establish business relations with suppliers of waste paper. Brokers try to convey to their merchant clients the idea that by their decision to sell paper waste they are making a huge contribution to the development of the paper industry and at the same time solving another problem - ridding the planet of waste.

Brokers purchase waste paper, after which they send it to those who are interested in its supply. Consumers of secondary paper raw materials are, as a rule, processing enterprises. These are factories that are becoming more and more around the world, because the authorities of all countries where such factories are located understand how important it is to support recyclers. However, the fact remains. The waste paper that goes to processing plants is only a part of what is formed as a result of consumption.

Many potential suppliers of recycled paper have already become real suppliers. They learn about waste brokers and contact them to establish mutually beneficial cooperation, ask them for old corrugated containers price and prices for other types of waste paper. Brokers willingly enter into agreements to help suppliers get rid of paper waste. Thus, each of them contributes to changing the situation. However, their efforts are still not enough. Every business owner facing paper waste needs to make the right decision. The solution is to send used paper for recycling instead of landfill.
