Ce type de papier est produit à partir du papier récupéré dans vos «bacs bleus». Il est important de le distinguer du papier recyclé dont la fibre provient des pertes de coupe en usine (pour la fabrication d'enveloppes par exemple) ou du papier rejeté dû à un problème de qualité. 4, record 1, French, - papier%20recycl%C3%A9%20post%2Dconsommation
