Types of Cardboard We Collect
We collect a variety of cardboard types to ensure all your waste management needs are covered:
- Corrugated Cardboard: Commonly used for shipping boxes and packaging. This type of cardboard is durable and has a layered structure.
- Flat Cardboard: Often used for cereal boxes, shoe boxes, and other retail packaging. This type of cardboard is lighter and less sturdy than corrugated cardboard.
- Cardboard Tubes: Found in paper towel rolls, toilet paper rolls, and some packaging materials.
- Cardboard Sheets: Used for cushioning and protection in shipping, as well as in crafting and other applications.
The Cardboard Recycling Process
Once your cardboard waste is collected by Stoke Waste, it undergoes a thorough recycling process to ensure it is repurposed into valuable new products:
- Collection: Our team collects your cardboard waste using the provided bins, ensuring timely and efficient service according to your schedule.
- Transportation: The collected cardboard is transported safely to our recycling facility, ensuring it remains dry and uncontaminated.
- Sorting and Shredding: At the facility, the cardboard is sorted to remove any contaminants, such as plastic or metal. It is then shredded into small pieces.
- Pulping: The shredded cardboard is mixed with water to create a pulp. This process breaks down the cardboard fibres, making them ready for reuse.
- Reforming: The pulp is spread out and pressed into new sheets of cardboard. These sheets are then dried and rolled out, ready to be turned into new products.
- Manufacturing: The recycled cardboard is used to create a variety of new products, such as packaging materials, boxes, and paper products.
Benefits of Recycling Cardboard
Recycling cardboard offers numerous environmental and economic benefits:
- Conserves Natural Resources: Recycling reduces the need for virgin materials, such as wood and water, conserving natural resources.
- Saves Energy: The energy required to produce new cardboard from recycled materials is significantly lower than producing it from raw materials.
- Reduces Waste: Recycling cardboard helps divert waste from landfills, conserving space and reducing environmental impact.
- Supports a Circular Economy: By recycling, you contribute to a system where materials are continuously reused, reducing the demand for new resources.
