Why Choose Dash International?
Double Lined Kraft Cuttings
DLK
DLK (Double Lined Kraft Cuttings) is a premium grade of recovered paper consisting of clean, unused corrugated cardboard trimmings generated during the manufacturing process of corrugated packaging. This material is composed of corrugated board with kraft liner layers on both sides, providing strong and durable fibers suitable for high-quality recycling applications. Since DLK originates from production waste rather than post-consumer sources, it contains minimal contaminants and maintains excellent fiber strength. DLK is widely used by paper mills as a valuable raw material for manufacturing kraft paper, testliner, corrugated packaging, and other recycled paper products that require strong and reliable fiber performance.
New Corrugated Cuttings
NCC
NCC (New Corrugated Cuttings) is a grade of recovered paper that consists of clean corrugated cardboard offcuts generated from manufacturing processes or unused corrugated material. This material comes mainly from production waste in corrugated box factories or clean trimmed pieces of new cardboard that have not been used in shipping or consumer applications. NCC is characterized by its high fiber quality and very low contamination level, as it is not exposed to end-use waste conditions like post-consumer grades. Because of this, it is considered a premium recycling raw material. It is widely used in paper recycling mills for producing corrugated packaging materials, carton boxes, and other high-strength paper products, often blended with other recycled fiber grades to improve overall performance and durability.

Old Newspapers
ONP

This grade is characterized by its suitable fiber content for repulping and recycling. It is collected and sorted to remove any contaminants or non-paper materials to ensure better quality in the recycling process. ONP is considered one of the key raw materials in the recycled paper industry and is widely used in the production of new newsprint paper and other low- to medium-grade paper products.
