Recycling 1 ton of paper saves around 682.5 gallons of oil, 26,500 liters of water and 17 trees. Recycling paper, however, is a long and tiresome process that uses extensive energy resources, which is a disincentive for many.

Epson’s Paper Recycling System; PaperLab. Epson created a machine that can be installed in the backyard of offices and businesses. The machine uses shredded paper to create various types, sizes, and thicknesses of paper. Most importantly, though, it does that in just three minutes! The PaperLab is an environmentally friendly process; it doesn’t use water and reduces CO2 emissions. The system can produce around 6,720 sheets in an eight-hour workday.
