Being Green :
Corrugated, made from a natural renewable resources, has a great environmental record. Corrugated are frequently manufactured using high percentages of secondary fiber (including old corrugated containers, kraftpaper, old newspapers and even straw) thereby diverting these materials from the municipal solid waste stream. Almost 70% of corrugated material is recovered and recycled. Even in 2012, 91% of all container board produced was recovered and recycled in the U.S. Corrugated has the best recycling rate of any packaging material used today and that’s what happens after the corrugated box has been used and reused time and time again to store and move items around the home, store and office. In addition, the use of corrugated constructions with high-performance linerboard has led to significant overall reduction in basis weight and a significant source reduction of raw materials.
