Types of Recycled Paper - YAML
Types of recycled paper are classified based on the Waste Paper Standard Quality Specifications established by the Paper Recycling Promotion Center (PRPC). The three main types - newspaper, cardboard, and magazines - account for approximately 80-85% of total waste paper volume, each with different raw material characteristics and recycling applications. Proper separation enables high-quality recycled paper production and improved resource circulation.
