Process design for graphical grades, news print The raw material for the processes discussed below comprises graphical post-consumer recovered paper grades, including a small proportion of unprinted pre-consumer grades. This kind of deinking material primarily consists of old newspapers and magazines and therefore contains mechanical fibres. In contrast, recovered office paper predominantly contains wood-free writing
