MEL is the largest paper recycling and cartonboard manufacturing company in Greece and one of the largest in Southeastern Europe. It designs, produces and markets recycled packaging paper, which is mainly produced from recycled paper as a raw material. In 1967, it started operations as one of the most modern factories in the world at that time and became part of the public sector in 1984. In 1998, following a public tender, the company returned to the private sector and since 2012 has been part of the multinational PAK GROUP, which is now the third largest cartonboard producer in Europe.
