The Holmen Iggesund integrated pulp and paperboard mill at Workington. Bleached mechanical pulp is processed to suit the special demands of paperboard manufacture and is combined with purchased bleached chemical pulp into a multi-layered board construction which is ideally suited to the demands of modern paperboard packaging. Under the trade name 'Incada' folding board from the mill is used in packaging for confectionery, cosmetics, wine, spirits, frozen and dried foods and tobacco products, plus greetings cards and covers. Other products incluse fibre based ready-made food packaging and specialist card for a range of applications and printing techniques. Since 2013 it has been powered entirely by biofuels including locally grown willow.

It has become a regular occurrence to see paper waste being spread on land as a soil conditioner. This mountain was being loaded into spreaders for application onto the fields on the uplands of Lyme Handley.

Went to have a peek at a paper mill today. Great place with plenty of scope for photography. Silos and tanks here at the end of the building where the pulp is prepared from recycled paper. These are for the waste material, such as ink, from the preparation flotation process.
