Paper & Cardboard Recycling

Cardboard boxes and paper are sorted and processed using advanced recycling systems at UK facilities. After removing contaminants such as tape, plastic, and non-recyclable materials, the waste is ready for recycling. Clean materials are pulped, ready to create new products.

When cardboard waste or paper cannot be recycled, we divert 100% from landfill. All documents, including waste transfer notes and recycling certificates, are stored in our portal for contracted customers to support audits and compliance.

Smarter Cardboard Recycling for Better Business

Recycling cardboard and paper waste offers tangible value for companies aiming to meet sustainability goals. Clean, segregated waste reduces disposal costs and can generate rebates for recyclable materials.

By using efficient collection systems and the customer portal, you can improve recycling performance, demonstrate progress against ESG targets, and reduce landfill use.

Types of Paper and Cardboard We Recycle

Our recycling services cover a wide range of packaging waste and paper products, including:

  • Corrugated cardboard and packaging boxes

  • Shredded documents and paperboard packaging

We tailor recycling solutions for industries including manufacturing, logistics, retail, and office environments to make recycling simple and sustainable.

Reducing Waste and Maximising Value

Recycling cardboard and paper supports a more sustainable production cycle. The process turns waste into new products, reduces reliance on virgin materials, and helps you manage storage space more effectively.

By collecting, recycling, and reusing materials, we help reduce waste while contributing to a cleaner environment and a lower carbon footprint.

Paper & Cardboard Waste Regulations Simplified 

Commercial paper and cardboard recycling must comply with UK waste rules, including proper segregation, authorised carriers, and accurate paperwork for collections.

Our customer portal stores everything needed for audits, organises your recycling data, and supports smooth compliance. It reduces admin while helping your business stay aligned with commercial recycling requirements.

Inspired Pet Nutrition’s Cardboard Recycling Success

Pet food manufacturer Inspired Pet Nutrition (IPN) faced a cardboard waste challenge, including packaging contaminated with meat and fish juice, which severely limited recycling and compromised their zero-to-landfill goal.

Waste Mission engineered a bespoke solution to manage all packaging waste. We implemented specialised processes to handle juice-contaminated materials and integrated a comprehensive system for all waste streams. This collaboration helped IPN achieve 100% recycling and waste diversion, transforming their packaging waste liability into a sustainability benchmark for the pet food industry. IPN now leverages these results to underscore its commitment to the circular economy.
