Sustainability at Our Core

Circular Economy

Our business model is built on circular economy principles. We transform recovered paper into high-quality products that, at end of life, can be recycled again—creating a continuous loop that minimises waste.

Collection → Processing → Manufacturing → Use → Recovery → Collection

We care, and that’s how we act. Sustainability isn’t just a value at Corex Iberia—it’s embedded in everything we do. As part of VPK Group, we contribute to recycling over 1.7 million tonnes of paper annually.
