Printworks 100% Recycled Multipurpose Paper takes the common belief that what's good for the environment needs to be expensive & turns it on its ear. While most economical, recycled papers are made with 30% recycled fiber, PrintWorks Recycled Multipurpose Paper is 100% recycled, more than 3 times the recycled content but around the same price. About 40% of all paper collected for recycling in the US is sent on a journey of up to 7,000 miles to overseas markets, where it is remanufactured into paper products, many of which are sent right back to the US. This round trip, of up to 14,000 miles, creates a vast carbon footprint compared to PrintWorks 100% Recycled copy paper which is REMADE right here in the US!
