Fiber

Fiber products encompass a myriad of paper products. Fiber can be separated into many categories, such as cardboard (OCC), office paper (OFF), magazines (MAG), newspapers (NEWS/ONP), mixed paper (MOP), and phonebooks (OTD). Typically, fiber products represent a large percentage of business solid waste. Often referred to as the "low-hanging fruit," fiber products are easily recyclable and businesses generally see direct cost savings benefits from reduced garbage service fees. The burden on the municipal solid waste collection and disposal systems decreases with increased recycling efforts by businesses.
