How to purchase recycled paper
Griffith University Research Computing Services purchases Fuji Xerox Recycled Supreme paper (100% post-consumer recycled and chlorine free) (Stock #2267) by the box.
The boxes are then used for under-desk paper recycling bins that can be emptied in your nearest blue paper wheelie bin (near printing areas).
Recycled papers today are produced to the same (if not better) specifications to virgin paper and are guaranteed by the manufacturer to be used in all typical office equipment and double sided (duplex) applications. It is against the Trade Practices Act for the manufacturer to suggest that only their paper brand will work in their proprietary machines.
For more information see Campus Life recycled paper fact sheet.
Where to buy it?

Recycled Supreme (code 2267) by Xerox is a 100% post consumer paper manufactured in Sweden. The paper is collected from offices all across Europe and reprocessed so that no new trees are used in its manufacture.
Australian 80% (code 2257) is paper that contains both virgin and recycled fibre. 20% of the paper's content comes from sustainably managed forests in Brazil and New Zealand (as certified by the Forest Stewardship Council) and the remaining 80% is made up of post-consumer content (20%) and pre-consumer content (60%).
