What are the benefits of choosing a recycled grade that uses PCW content?

Your paper choices can make a difference. To calculate the impact of choosing our Nature and Nature Plus PCW grades over 100% virgin grades, simply enter the number of tons you are ordering and we will show you the results. All calculations are based on purchasing Nature paper made with 10% - 30% PCW versus paper that is made with 100% virgin fiber. The calculations include impacts for harvesting, manufacturing and end-of-lifecycle disposal.

Different basis weights require different amounts of fiber. Enter the closest basis weight to get the most accurate calculation.

This is a comparison of Nature products to Sonoma or Capistrano virgin paper and assumes that recycled fiber would otherwise have been landfilled and replaced with virgin. The following calculations are estimations based on specific West Linn Paper Company manufacturing processes and actual results may vary.
