PAPER CIRCULARITY AT GREIF

Greif paper packaging is a net-positive recycler. In simple terms, we recycle more than we make! It helps that most of our paper packaging is made from a renewable and reclaimed source – old corrugated containers. In other words, your old pizza box!

There’s a never-ending hunger for boxes in the lush valley where most of the produce for the US is grown. Stockton, California, is a key northern point of the famed Central Valley of California.

We are proud to offer corrugated container recycling in Stockton, CA. The address of this facility is 800B West Church St., Stockton, CA 95203, United States.

Feeding people means eating up a lot of cardboard

Feeding the demand for fresh produce boxes and more requires a prolific system of recovery for old cardboard. Cardboard is one of the most recyclable materials on the planet, and Greif paper packaging is a net-positive recycler. That means we recycle more paper products than we make.

The Greif mill network churns out countless rolls of paper that get made into brand-new boxes. It’s a circularity success story.

It is then broken down into small pieces and pulped, which turns it into a slurry that is then used to create new cardboard products. The process of recycling cardboard can be energy-intensive, but it is definitely worth it since it can help reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills. Additionally, it can help reduce the amount of natural resources needed to make new cardboard products.

Recycling cardboard helps the environment by reducing the amount of waste that is sent to landfills, as well as reducing the amount of resources needed to make new cardboard products.
