Old Corrugated Containers (OCC) are used cardboard boxes and packaging materials collected after consumer or industrial use. They typically include shipping boxes, packaging cartons, and other corrugated cardboard waste.
OCC is one of the most important grades in the recycling industry and is widely used as a raw material for producing new cardboard, packaging boards, and paper products. It is sorted, baled, and processed to remove impurities like tape, labels, and plastics before recycling. OCC is valued for its strong fiber content and cost-effective recycling potential.
