    100% recycled paper from Model

    The fibers for our papers are 100% recycled.

    Recycled paper

    We give recovered paper a new life. Our recycled papers are made from 100% recovered paper fibers, helping to keep valuable materials in the loop and reduce the need for primary fibers. Quality and careful processing are at the heart of our paper production. At the same time, we make use of short transport distances within the Model Group wherever possible.

    Location Eilenburg

    The site in Germany has been part of the Model Group since August 2021. The conversion of our plant for the production of corrugated base paper has been successfully completed since August 2024.

     

    The highly productive manufacturing program includes the production of corrugating medium and testliner 3 from 70-120 g/sqm². The capacity of the paper machine is 600,000 tons per year with a working width of 9.40m.

     

    This means that we will have the largest and widest paper machine in the Model Group available in Eilenburg in 2024.

     

    We provide training at the Eilenburg site: for example for the professions of paper technologist, electronics technician and mechatronics technician.

    Our construction progress over time

    Waste paper as raw material

    Quality assurance

    We already pay attention to the highest quality when the raw material is delivered: Our employees check the delivered waste paper bales closely. Quality assurance includes:

     

    • Testing for foreign substances, i.e. non-paper components. We accept a maximum of 7 percent foreign matter in the base material.
    • Testing for wet strength, as these cannot be dissolved.
    Reducing the need for primary fibers

    Recycled paper

    At Model, we always know exactly which raw materials and additional materials were use to manufacture the paper and packaging. We also check the upstream and downstream activities ourselves. This enables us to make the entire manufacturing process and our supply chains transparent for our customers. Another plus: Recycled paper is ideal for the majority of all types of packaging.

    Our paper grades

    Testliner & corrugated fabric & flute liner

    The testliner paper grade is produced for the outer and inner liner of corrugated board. Our testliner in quality grades 1, 2 and 3 is made from 100% recycled fibers. Our Testliner 1 has the highest strength properties.

     

    The corrugating medium paper grade is produced for our corrugated cardboard production as a corrugated paper web between the outer and inner liner of the corrugated cardboard. In addition to the standard corrugating medium, we also produce a dew-improved high-performance variant called Medium HP, which offers higher strength values. Our fluting is also made from 100% recycled fibers.

     

    The Flute-Liner paper grade combines the two worlds of testliner and corrugating medium: it is equally suitable for use as an outer and inner liner as well as for the corrugated paper web. Flute-Liner is made from 100% recycled fibers.

    Recycled fibers

    Kraftliner Replacement

    As strong as virgin fiber kraftliner, sustainably made from recycled paper: Our kraftliner replacement based on 100% recycled fibers is a cheap substitute product (Recover fiber share by mass is 100%). We use kraftliner quality paper when very high strength (stability) is required (for spare parts and machine parts packaging, overseas transport and refrigerated packaging).

    Technology and logistics

    Optimal cooperation for our customers

    Around the clock, seven days a week, our employees take care of the complex papermaking processes with passion and know-how. The smooth maintenance of the technical systems is an exciting, challenging task. Our factory logistics move raw materials and finished goods in large quantities every day. We can offer our customers the best possible quality because of the strength of this cooperation.
