ALPA revovered paper recycling -
for the sake of the environment
We use recovered paper collected from households (newspapers, magazines) to produce high-quality newsprint and magazine papers. To process this recovered paper, we have invested a great deal in our modern and ecologically sound ALPA I and ALPA II recovered paper recycling plants. Things come around full circle here in that recovered paper is put to ecologically sensible use.
