SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTS AND LOCAL SOURCING

We design circular products made from recycled and 100% recyclable materials: our job is to recycle waste paper to make paper reels. 

The plant is a major player in the recycled paper industry, receiving around thirty lorries of waste paper every day. Every year, they bring 180,000 tonnes of paper to be recycled from the northern half of France, Belgium and the Netherlands: we are supplied within a 250 km radius.

PAPER MILL INDEPENDENCE

Our paper independence is a competitive advantage when the paper market is disrupted, as was the case during the Covid period, which created supply difficulties and even shortages.

Machinery: 2 paper machines with a usable width of 2.50m, perfectly integrated, ensuring real autonomy.

A COMPLETE MADE-TO-MEASURE OFFER

The products manufactured are fluted papers, unbleached testliners and kraft substitutes with grammages ranging from 40 to 280 g/m².

On request, we also offer white testliners, coated papers and a range of special papers, such as food contact papers, abrasion-resistant papers, moisture barriers (made from PET), anti-static and anti-slip papers. The papers purchased by the Group are FSC® certified.

Drawing on our historical expertise, we are able to create standard compositions as well as tailor-made products to meet the specific needs of our customers.

FULLY INTEGRATED SITE AND OPTIMISED CO2 BALANCE

The paper produced is integrated into the manufacture of our corrugated board. The Wardrecques site is unique in that it operates as a fully integrated site: the paper mill, reel storage and cardboard factory are all grouped together on site, enabling us to optimise our carbon footprint in the production of corrugated board sheets and packaging, thereby reducing our impact on the environment.
