INGEDE – Research for Paper Recycling

As an association of leading European paper manufacturers, the International Research Association for Deinking Technology (INGEDE) was founded in 1989.

INGEDE’s mission is to foster light-colored waste paper recycling (newspapers and magazines) into new graphic paper and sanitary paper and improve the framework conditions for the increased use of waste paper. Still, the mixed waste paper collected in the Blue Bin has to be sorted into separately recyclable types to keep the white fibers in the cycle. White packaging is a potential raw material for new, light-colored papers.
