According to various experts, between 40,000 and 70,000 tonnes of wastepaper, cardboard and packaging paper are generated in Estonia every year.

  • Räpina Paper Mill annually uses 18,000 tons of wastepaper in its production process.
  • Recycling one tonne of wastepaper saves around 17 trees, 26,500 litres of water, 476 litres of oil and 4000 kWh of electricity. Every year, our efforts save around 306,000 trees from felling in Estonian forests, which is ca 63,000 cubic metres of timber.
