Document shredding companies and secure document destruction companies contribute greatly to recycled paper manufacturing because they provide a more readily available feedstock for manufacturing process. Paper as we all know it, has its pros and cons. The pros being that it is still one of the most flexible and easy ways of storing information in a physical form (i.e. until mind reading comes as an application on computers) Which is why most people who find typing a hassle simply refuse to move from their scratchpads, diaries and notebooks. Apart from being a medium of input, paper also helps display information, from paper pamphlets to periodicals to paper money and text books; but have you ever stopped and wondered as to what happens to all of them when they cannot be used anymore? Virgin paper today is made from shedding trees which are then converted to a pulp and then into large rolls of paper. Now although this may sound pretty ok knowing that some trees are felled for paper (and that lumber companies always plant new ones), one must remember that the worldwide consumption of paper is more than 300 million tonnes. Now, all of these numbers may not completely include virgin paper only, but it is still a substantial amount. Recycling paper is a great way to reduce the impact of cutting trees to create virgin paper. But on the other hand, producing recycled paper leads to greater emissions as compared to virgin paper production. Why this saves the environment, is simply because the number of trees felled to make virgin paper gets reduced. One question that does arise is where does all of this paper come from? A large chunk of materials for making recycled paper surprisingly comes from landfills meaning that recovery rates here are important. Another source of materials comes from document shredding companies worldwide that contribute greatly to the manufacturing of recycled paper. Document shredding companies and secure document destruction companies contribute greatly to recycled paper manufacturing because they provide a more readily available feedstock for the manufacturing process. Such paper is less contaminated when compared to other sources of materials which may contain, staples, paper clips, plastic and wire which means lesser impurities to sort out leading to fewer emissions. Moreover, document shredding companies will always offer an image scanning service which is a new way to get rid of age old paper documentation and well as the current ones and makes them available in a digital form. Apart from helping companies get rid of paper documents, they offer more flexibility to the company or the corporation; promoting better visibility of documents online to other branches worldwide.
