Recyclability of waxed paper

Eurowaxpack has proved that waxed paper is recyclable and is in negotiation to set up a recycling system for post industrial waste. Next to glass, paper has the highest recycling rate of all packaging materials. Recycled waxed paper is used in many applications such as corrugated board and graphical papers. Waxed paper waste can be reconstituted into firelogs, building and construction composites such as furniture and door filling. Where recycling systems are not in place, incineration with energy recovery is a further option.
