Circular Economy
Corrugated paper packaging is designed to be recycled, returned to production and create lasting value for the economy and the environment.
Circular by Nature
Corrugated paper packaging is a prime example of the circular economy. It is produced from renewable and recycled paper fibres, used to safely protect and transport products and, after use, collected and recycled into new paper products and packaging.
This keeps paper fibres in circulation for multiple life cycles, reducing the use of virgin resources and minimising waste.
Principles of Circularity
Renewable Raw Materials
Virgin paper fibres come from responsibly managed sources, while a significant share of production is based on recycled fibres.
Designed for Recycling
Its composition and design facilitate efficient collection, sorting and recycling after use.
Efficient Use of Materials
Packaging is designed according to the actual needs of each product, reducing material consumption and unnecessary weight.
Product Protection
Its high strength helps reduce product damage and losses during transportation, storage and distribution.
Value After Use
Used paper packaging becomes a valuable secondary raw material for the production of new paper products.
Returning to Production
Recovered fibres are reintroduced into the production cycle, helping conserve natural resources and reduce waste.
From Use to New Life
Collection
Proper sorting is the first step in returning paper packaging to the recycling loop.
Recycling
Used paper fibres are recovered and transformed into new raw material for paper production.
Fibre Reuse
Paper fibres return to the production process, reducing the need for additional virgin resources.
Circular Value Across the Entire Value Chain
For Businesses
Efficient packaging solutions that combine protection, functionality and recyclability.
For Consumers
Packaging that is easy to separate and recycle through existing collection system
For the Economy
Keeping valuable materials in circulation creates value and strengthens the circular economy.
For the Environment
Efficient resource use and waste reduction contribute to environmental protection.
The Industry's Contribution
The Greek corrugated paper packaging industry continuously invests in the efficient use of raw materials, increased use of recycled fibres, improved energy efficiency and innovative solutions that support the transition to a more circular economy.
Fewer resources. Less waste. More value.
