Essity plans to build a new waste paper recycling plant at its Prudhoe factory in the UK and further reduce the use of virgin wood pulp in products such as toilet paper. Essity plans to replace the factory's original 50-year-old waste paper recycling workshop with a new workshop equipped with the latest recycling equipment to reduce energy costs and increase the company's ability to utilize recycled fibers.

Paul Oliver, project manager for the plant, said: "Essity has been moving towards sustainability, with recycled fiber production of toilet paper and wipes at the heart of the initiative, which is popular with supermarkets and environmentally conscious shoppers alike.

In the past, most of our waste paper pulp was made from office waste paper, but with the increased use of corporate email and PDF files, and the decrease in printing and copying needs, the amount of office waste paper is declining. The policy of working from home after the pneumonia epidemic has accelerated this trend.”

The project is expected to invest millions of pounds. Essity has already applied to the local government. If approved, the company's waste paper recycling capacity will be improved, and lower grades of recycled paper, such as recycled packaging cardboard, can be used to save virgin waste.
