Materials
Since our company was founded, our flagship products have been the “whites”: computer print-out, printed paper, white archives with and without glue, white I/II, coloured archives and several types of shavings.
A circular economy
Over the years we have added white newsprint, shredded books, leaflet inserts and their trimmings, white kraft tissue, WS, toilet paper trimmings, flyers and much more. Shavings – with or without glue, fibrous or not – are one of the many types of recovered paper that come from printing works.
The materials we have been recycling and trading for over fifty years are part of a great circular economy in which Italy ranks among Europe’s leaders, both for separate collection and for its many excellent companies: paper mills, traders, warehouses.
Most of our material comes from recycling and sorting warehouses all over Italy: suppliers we have been closely linked to for over fifty years, who have kept working with us on the basis of mutual trust, reliability and punctual payments.
The paper cycle
Recovered paper is a raw material: it goes back to the paper mill and becomes new paper. Bini is the link between collection and production.
Step 1 of 6
Waste
1 Step 1 of 6
Waste
Newspapers, boxes, archives, printers’ trimmings: used paper is collected separately from households, offices and businesses. It is the start of a new life.
2 Step 2 of 6
Selected raw material
Private warehouses and municipal companies sort recovered paper by grade and press it into bales, following the classes of the European standard EN 643.
3 Step 3 of 6
Buying and selling
This is where we come in: we buy recovered paper from a network of suppliers built over more than sixty years and sell it to paper mills and large international groups, with consistent quality.
4 Step 4 of 6
Paper mills
At the mill the bales are dissolved in water, cleaned and turned into a new fibre pulp: the secondary raw material becomes paper again.
5 Step 5 of 6
Semi-finished product
Reels of paper and board come off the paper machine, ready to become packaging, graphic papers and tissue.

Finished product
Boxes, notebooks, newspapers, rolls: paper is back in our hands. And when it has done its job, the cycle will start again.
