I work in a large law firm as a librian and am finding it impossible to have my books recycles. All recycling businesses tell me they won't take them unless I remove the spines. This sounds absolutely absurd to me, someone has to have the ability to do this. I toss an insane amount of paper away every day and it makes me crazy. if I know how to go about having this paper shipped to China I would do it in a second.

And phonebooks, how can we recycle those.

My factories in Thailand need a lot of waste paper for more than 2000 tons. To 100, 000 tons monthly, especially for magazines, white-black and Newspaper.
And in the same time, my factories produce a lot of used paper, OCC, more than 5000 tons monthly and collecting more than 10000 tons, all of these for selling to overseas
I am very interested to buy Foreigner Corrugator Paper Machines and Paper Carton Making Machines for Completed Production Line for (used) second-hand or damaged machines.
Myself I am half swiss and half thai, my native speaker are French, german and thai. I have more than ten years experiences in paper industries and in various Heavy Machines experiences as Sales Engineer in Switzerland. I have many Recycled (Paper) Knowledge due to my mother working as Corrugated Paper & Offset Paper's Manufacturer and my father as Assistant of Industrial Minister. So that is why I know in personal many Industrial Owners in Thailand, that represent 87% of whole Industrial Thai Markets. I can prove you with executed documents.

I am researching the paper trading industry. How many of you are exporting paper and how are high fuel costs affecting your competitiveness?
