Cardboard

Cardboard is a resource that can be used again and again. Cardboard boxes and cardboard packaging can be turned into new products.

When disposing of cardboard, it is important that it is clean and dry. Any plastic film and styrofoam residues must be removed before disposing of cardboard.
