Stone Paper

Stone paper

Stone paper is made from 80% Calcium Carbonate (CoCO3) with 20% of non-toxic resin (HDPE-High Density Polyethylene) 

Stone Paper's natural attributes make it the perfect material for premium retail bags; natural strength and a waterproof feature to ensure that it is better equipped for the job. As its color palate is naturally white (calcium carbonate), Stone Paper prints beautifully and ensures no chemicals are required to give an elegant and luxurious finish.

Stone paper has a number of unique environmental attributes:

1. It has a low CO2 emission profile.

2. It beneficially reuses a waste stream.

3. Its manufacture does not pollute rivers and ocean.

4. Its manufacture uses relatively little energy.
