Italy-based Pro-Gest Group, a containerboard producer, and Lamacart, a leader in the recovery of wastepaper, this past week announced that they have entered into a cooperation to establish United Recycling S.r.l., a partnership between Cartiera di Carbonera and Lamacart.

The two partners of United Recycling are both well-known players in the business and this establishment is part of the development of Pro-Gest’s recycling division.

This joint venture will, in fact, give to both companies an important advantage in the plan of an ever greater vertical integration in the business of recycling.

The collaboration with Thomas Nicolis, president of Lamacart, has also succeeded thanks to the valuable support of Massimo Pontin, international expert on wastepaper.
