Because of printing mistakes, junk mails, billings, and packaging, the paper may comprise up to 70% of a company's total waste. An average office employee would be using about 10,000 sheets of paper in a year. ♻️There is a wide variety of alternative 'fibres' that can work as an alternative to wood-pulp paper. Sources for tree-free paper include: agricultural residues – for example, sugar cane bagasse, husks and straw. fibre crops and wild plants – such as bamboo, kenaf, hemp, jute, and flax.

The Indian recycling industry needs nearly 14 million tonnes of waste paper to meet current demands. Domestic recycling only produces 30% of that amount, and recycling levels are only half the global average. So the demand for waste paper from abroad is likely to remain strong.
