This report mainly focuses on the recycling paper and cardboard market. Paper and cardboard recycling is the process of mixing used paper with water and chemicals to break it down. This mixture is then chopped up and heated to break it down further into strands of cellulose called pulp or slurry. It is then strained through screens which remove any glue or plastic that may still be in the mixture. Finally it is cleaned, de-inked, bleached, mixed with water and then it can be made into new recycled paper.
The global Recycling Paper and Cardboard market was valued at US$ 47440 million in 2023 and is anticipated to reach US$ 59880 million by 2030, witnessing a CAGR of 3.1% during the forecast period 2024-2030.

This report mainly focuses on the recycling paper and cardboard market. Paper and cardboard recycling is the process of mixing used paper with water and chemicals to break it down. This mixture is then chopped up and heated to break it down further into strands of cellulose called pulp or slurry. It is then strained through screens which remove any glue or plastic that may still be in the mixture. Finally it is cleaned, de-inked, bleached, mixed with water and then it can be made into new recycled paper.
