Overview
Paper and card wastes include any single one or mixture of the following: Paper, card, board, board/plastic composites and other paper composite products. Most of this waste arises from offices and packaging[1].
Due to the fact paper and card are derived from trees it is important that, if it is to be sustainable, paper and card waste is recycled so the rate at which these materials are used does not exceed the rate at which the trees can grow[1].
In addition to recycling, a significant portion of paper and card waste is sent to energy recovery facilities, totaling 566,000 tonnes in 2014[2].
Macro Tonnages
The most recent information published by DEFRA [3] [4]is summarized in the pie chart below, with 6,989,853 tonnes of paper & cardboard wastes generated in the UK in 2016 as part of the broader tonnage reported in UK Waste Tonnage:
The macro numbers above under report the total paper & card put into the market as the macro numbers exclude tonnage in mixed categories. The macro numbers also do not breakdown the component elements of paper & card, but the following headers in the page are the materials as handled by local authorities and as reported through WasteDataFlow.
