Bulk Recovered Newsprint Pellets from China
Bulk recovered newsprint pellets are produced by shredding and pelletizing waste newsprint to facilitate handling and transport. The pellets retain the mechanical pulp composition of the original newsprint, making them classifiable under tariff item 4707.30.00 as recovered paper made mainly of mechanical pulp. This processed form is used as feedstock in paper recycling operations.
