Saving paper is the most common slogan in the office, and there is no more effective way than saving paper is to recycle paper. Epson, a famous Japanese printing equipment manufacturer, recently launched a small recycled paper making machine "PaperLab", which can produce recycled paper by putting in waste paper.
PaperLab is 2.6m long, 1.8m high and 1.2m wide. The volume is larger than that of ordinary commercial photocopiers. As long as you put the waste paper inside and press the start button, the first recycled paper can be produced in 3 minutes. After that, 14 sheets of A4 recycled paper can be produced every minute. The premise is that There should be enough waste paper.

PaperLab uses a technology called Dry Fiber Technology, which does not require a large amount of Recycled paper can be produced using only water, which is quite environmentally friendly. After the waste paper is decomposed, other binders can be added to produce paper of different colors and scents. The size and thickness of the paper can also be customized according to needs. According to Epson, the installation of the machine is very simple and does not require any additional connections. It only requires a small amount of water to maintain internal humidity during operation.
Epson unveiled PaperLab at this years Tokyo Eco Products Show and plans to release it next year.
