Paper Like No Other

How Our Cotton Paper Is Made

Feel the difference of 100% cotton paper, made from recycled cotton clippings and surplus from nearby garment factories.

Creating cotton paper pulp from industrial garment manufacturing scraps: a long trough of wet white pulp at the mill in Jaipur
The pulp, at the mill in Jaipur

1

From clippings to pulp

The clippings are cleaned and cut into fine fibers. When combined with water, a pulp is formed.

Every sheet is hung to dry on its own

2

Formed by hand, hung to dry

The pulp is then carefully spread by hand across boxed screens, causing the fibers to interlock, forming an exceptionally strong and cohesive paper. The individual sheets are pressed together to expel the water and then hung to dry individually.

3

Pressed smooth, texture kept

Once dry, the paper sheets are rolled by hand through giant rollers of the calender machine where the natural bumps associated with handmade paper are gently smoothed. The cold press process creates a premium paper that still retains a beautiful texture and “tooth.”

Printing on cotton card stock

Which printer?

Laser printers and many inkjet printers. For best results, load one sheet at a time and print a test sheet first.

White or Off-White?

White is a soft, natural white; Off-White is a warm ivory. Both are 200 gsm with deckled edges, in packs of 100 or 25.

What else is it for?

Watercolor, mixed media, calligraphy, colored pencils, sketching, card making and handwritten notes.
