In recent years, the use of stone paper has been on the rise as users discover the many benefits that it provides. Developed to be an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional pulped wood, it is quickly becoming the go-to solution for eco-conscious writers, but what exactly is it?
What is stone paper?
Stone paper is a non-toxic and biodegradable alternative to traditional paper, and it is completely tree-free. The paper is made from calcium carbonate, a common substance in stones, and it is produced in an environmentally friendly way using solar power and does not require any water or chemicals.
Equally, when burned, no harmful gases are released, while its lower absorption rate means users use up to 20% less ink.
What are the benefits?
Alongside its environmental benefits, stone paper offers the user a wide array of advantages compared to traditional options. The paper itself is incredibly hardwearing and is almost impossible to tear, while it is also resistant to water, ensuring any spillages do not ruin your work.
Stone paper is greaseproof, too, which means your paper will always look in pristine condition and will not face any smudges or marks from your fingers. The material will break down in natural sunlight within a year, and it is also able to be recycled with plastic such as HDPE.
