26th July 2009

From a starting point of recycling a third of the paper it used, the University of Lincoln's yoyo scheme is now providing a closed loop paper recycling service to some 1,100 staff and 9,700 students across five campuses. Already a Robert Horne recycled paper customer, the University's staff and students have fully embraced the yoyo service and now prevent up to 13 million sheets of paper waste a year going to landfill. Click here for the full story.

 

With ambitious plans to cut carbon emissions by 30%, the Reprographics Unit at Bishop Grosseteste University College Lincoln was particularly impressed with the ‘paper in-paper out' service which yoyo offered. The unique closed loop recycling scheme ensures that the vehicle delivering the University College's new stocks of yoyo paper takes away the collected waste paper at the same time, which is then recycled back into new paper. This reverse logistics element contributed significantly to the Reprographics Unit exceeding its target and cutting its carbon emissions by 48%. Click here the full story.
