Sustainable paper tubes, recycled all the way around
Eco-friendly paper tubes and cores wound from 100% recycled paper in New Hampshire — and 100% of production waste recycled back into the loop.
Sustainability is not a page on our site; it is the raw material. NHPT winds every tube and core from 100% recycled paper, and 100% of our own production waste goes back into the recycling stream. Add short New England freight lanes and curbside-recyclable end-of-life, and the loop closes for real.
Recycled in, recycled out
Incoming stock is 100% recycled fiber. Trim, cut-offs, and floor waste return to the mill. No forests are logged on our account — recycled fiber preserves standing timber and cuts demand for virgin wood.
Freight is part of the footprint
A tube trucked 90 minutes beats the same tube trucked 1,200 miles, every time. Regional supply is an emissions decision as much as a lead-time decision.

FAQ
Are your paper tubes really 100% recycled?
Yes — source paper is 100% recycled fiber, and 100% of our production waste paper is recycled back into the supply chain.
Are paper tubes recyclable after use?
Kraft paper tubes and cores are curbside-recyclable in most municipal programs — your customers close the loop at the bin.
Does recycled paper compromise strength?
No. Wall thickness, ply count, and construction set strength; our recycled-fiber tubes are specified and tested to the same crush requirements as any virgin-fiber equivalent.
