FLYERS & ADVERTISING PAGE 16 â€" WATERLOO CHRONICLE, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1994 Thorold mill began recycling paper because it makes good sense â€" recycling old paper is far more efficient than making paper from straight virgin wood fiber. The plant uses 87 per cent less electriâ€" QUNCO was one of the major plants behind the move to the blue box program. The blue box supâ€" plied Thorold deâ€"ink plant with part of an untapped forest of paper from our homes. This was the largest recycling effort ever started in Canada. QLUNO began manufacturing newsprint with recyâ€" cled fiber content in 1982. They were the only plant in Ontanmo to recycle newsprint until 1990. Heavy rollers squeeze the wire mesh and the pulp between a thin wet sheet. The thin sheet shoots out of the press headed for the dryers and the dryers take the moisture out of the thin wet sheet. Once the paper is dry enough, the thin mesh screens peel away and theâ€"paper goes through one last heavy set of rollers and turns on to huge rolls 12 metres wmide. Once the paper is made, it can be cut on another machine according to the specifications of the paper order. Finished rolls of paper move into a grooved conveyor belt. The rolls sit for a while to dry a bit further, then they‘re wrapped and sent to rail cars or trucks for shipping. ‘ On this day, workers load few rolls in the back of a truck bound for Kitchener. This is the paper for future Waterloo Chronicles. Your old newspaper is halfway through its journey back to your doorstep. turns from pormdgy paste to newspaper in less than a minute. Paper starts out with 97 per cent water content. The header box distributes the mush evenly between two mesh screens about 12 metres wide and spreads the mush between two fine mesh screens.

The mill profits from our old paper. The environâ€" ment profits from the mill‘s efficiency. And we profit from the mil} and a better environment. In a real sense, old news makes good news. The scarce supply of old magazines and newsprint is partially due to the recession. During the recession, businesses buy less advertising space. Because of the lack of advertising, newspaâ€" pers and magazines have been smaller than usual, and smaller publications mean less recycled paper for the mill. The plant has a tough time finding paper to supâ€" ply its demands. The plant eats old newspaper and magazines fast â€" and it want more. Especially magâ€" azines. Most magazines don‘t make it to the blue box. For every 30 magazines printed, one ends up at the curbside. Newspapers are more likely to be recycled. For every four newspapers made, one ends up in the recycling box. cal energy if it makes pulp from recycled paper rather than virgin wood fiber. This energyâ€"saving represents enough power to supply the entire elecâ€" trical needs of 5000 households. In 1987, the mill began to use Flotation Deâ€"inkâ€" ing Technology. Before this time, the Thorold mill could not handle the contaminants of glossy paper, binding glue and staples found in glossy kinds of paper until 1987. This deâ€"inking system handles the contaminants found in glossy magazines and the telephone books. Glossy magazines improve the quality of the recycled fiber. Glossy magazine paper adds long fibers and clay to the pulp mix.
