Recycled Office Paper for Printing and Photocopying to the Irish Public Sector


Goods and services that this framework agreement offers

All paper supplied by this contract is manufactured from 100% recycled fibres and aligns with the target set out in the Climate Action Plan, namely target 3.7.1 –

“Review any paper-based processes and evaluate the possibilities for digitisation so it becomes the default approach. Eliminate paper-based processes as far as is practicable. Where paper must be procured, ensure that recycled paper is the default.”

A4 – 80gsm white paper supplied via this arrangement is available in 4 brightness levels. Due to it being a recycled product, the paper with a lower CIE value may appear or be described as off white. A higher CIE value reflects a brighter paper that has been manufactured from a higher-grade recycled pulp.

An A3 Recycled paper and A4 paper in 5 pastel colours (Cream, Pink, Yellow, Green & Blue) is also available.

For a more detailed overview, please see the User Guide which is available on the Buyer Zone.
