To give paper it's white colour, it has to be treated with certain chemicals. A lot of recycled paper is treated this way also.

A lot of companies prefer to leave recycled paper as brown, however, as people associate that colour more with recycling and helping the environment. It is also more cost effective to leave the paper in it's uncoloured state if it does not need to be white.
