The majority of fibers are recyclable and reusable. The recyclability of fibers contributes significantly to reducing the environmental impact. The reuse of fibers also conserves resources.

Recycled fibers have many applications in the construction industry, for example by processing waste paper or cellulose into products such as corrugated roofing felt and plasterboard.

Recovered paper is also used in a variety of ways in everyday life and the home. It is not only used in recycled printing and craft paper, but sustainable alternatives are also increasingly being used in the production of packaging, boxes, displays and even toys such as puzzles and memory games.
