Maple-Vail’s Long spoke of an increased demand for recycled stocks in the past five years, and said Maple-Vail expects a 55-percent increase in recycled paper usage this year compared to 2005. He attributed the increase to a higher awareness of the environmental movement in recent years; GPI’s efforts within the book industry to raise awareness of the ecological benefits of using recycled stock; and mills expanding offerings at lower prices due to increased demand. In 2007, Maple-Vail offered 12 recycled grades and 38 total sizes compared to 8 grades and 29 sizes in 2005.
