[[Paper & Card]] wastes include any single one or mixture of the following: Paper, card, board, board/plastic composites and other paper composite products.

[[Paper & Card]] is essentially derived from trees and so, if it is to be sustainable, paper and card waste should be recycled so the rate at which these materials are used does not exceed the rate at which the trees can grow<ref name="foo" />. | [[Paper & Card]] is essentially derived from trees and so, if it is to be sustainable, paper and card waste should be recycled so the rate at which these materials are used does not exceed the rate at which the trees can grow<ref name="foo" />. | ||

The grouping of Paper & Card is a broad category but captures a wide range of different specific categories/types within the [[recycling]] sector that essentially specializes in the [[recycling]] and the national and international trading of the fibre (from the different types) back into paper and cardboard (and to some degree the value of fibre in recycled paper and card types links back the value and availability of fibre derived from trees and wood). Each time Paper & Card is recycled the fibre length shortens, resulting in a progressive use towards lower grades of Paper & Card products over time. | The grouping of Paper & Card is a broad category but captures a wide range of different specific categories/types within the [[recycling]] sector that essentially specializes in the [[recycling]] and the national and international trading of the fibre (from the different types) back into paper and cardboard (and to some degree the value of fibre in recycled paper and card types links back the value and availability of fibre derived from trees and wood).

A European list of standard grades of paper and board is captured in EN 643 which was revised in 2013<ref>[https://www.pita.org.uk/images/PDF/CEPI_EN_643_Documentation.pdf Guidance on the Revised EN643]</ref>. There are 5 groups that fall with in the definition of 'Paper and Board for Recycling', further defined as ''natural fibre-based paper and board suitable for recycling; consisting of paper and board in any shape or product made predominately from paper and board, which may include other constituents that cannot be removed by dry sorting, such as coatings, laminates, spiral bindings etc''. | A European list of standard grades of paper and board is captured in EN 643 which was revised in 2013<ref>[https://www.pita.org.uk/images/PDF/CEPI_EN_643_Documentation.pdf Guidance on the Revised EN643]</ref>.
