Marketing Tip: Use Recycled and Renewable Paper Sources

There are fantastic resources now available for paper.  Choices range from 100% post-consumer paper to kenaf, hemp and “elephant pooh.”  Here are some of our favorites:

  • New Leaf Paper
    Excellent quality for professional grade papers.
  • Gray’s Harbor Paper
    They offer recycled Xerographic, Laser Copy and Offset papers with 40% and 100% Post Consumer Waste.   Gray’s Harbor will also be testing the sale of 100% post consumer paper at Costco.
  • Mr. Ellie Pooh
    This elephant dung paper is beautiful – really!  Perfect for invitations for your best customers.  This paper is the result of an elephant conservation program in Sri Lanka.  This wonderful program protects the elephants while providing jobs for the people of Sri Lanka.
  • Kenaf, from Vision Paper
    Kenaf is a quick growing, CO2 absorbing plant.  The finished paper feels soft, like flannel.
  • Hemp papers
    Yes, you’ll be seeing more of this coming our way.  It’s another quick growing plant that can be grown pesticide free.  As a bit of trivia, the Declaration of Independence was written on hemp.
