About this HS Code
HS Code 4707 covers recovered (waste and scrap) paper or paperboard for recycling. The classification distinguishes between unbleached kraft paper/paperboard (4707.10), bleached chemical pulp paper (4707.20), mechanical pulp paper including newsprint (4707.30), and mixed paper waste (4707.90). This resource recovery category supports the circular economy for fiber-based materials. Products are typically sorted by grade and compressed into bales for transport to recycling facilities. Quality specifications focus on contamination limits, moisture content, and fiber composition. Unlike virgin paper materials (HS 4801-4823), these recovered materials represent the recycling stream that returns fiber to the production cycle. This division supports global sustainability objectives by reducing virgin fiber demand and landfill waste, while providing economical raw material inputs for less demanding paper applications.
