ENGLAND (News release) -- A waste paper sorting plant for the production of newsprint is being built alongside the Palm Paper plant in King's Lynn, UK. Directly connected to the paper machine's materials processing, the fully automated sorting plant will house separately collected mixed waste paper from a range of collection points for sorting into newspaper and magazines. Sorted cardboard and corrugated board will be transported for recycling to other paper plants around the United Kingdom and Europe.

Palm Recycling emphasised that this will not be a conventional recycling plant for sorting mixed reusable materials. It will solely process mixed waste paper types collected separately to glass, metals, plastics and other materials.
