Paper recycling
Recovered paper is the backbone of Sonoco. Recovered paper is the primary raw material for nearly all of the paper products we manufacture. Most of the paperboard Sonoco makes is used internally by its converting operations to produce tubes, protective packaging and other products. 

Sonoco recently began commercial operation of a fully automated, state-of-the-art materials recovery facility (MRF) that recycles curbside-collected and dual-stream residential and commercial waste materials from the Raleigh and Wake County, N.C. area. The 45,000 square foot recycling facility uses a computer-automated reclamation processing system.
