What Goes Into Making Blue Cat Paper?

India is the world's 2nd largest hub for cloth manufacturing. It uses over 35 million tonnes of raw cotton every year for manufacturing clothes. During the manufacturing process there is about 3 to 5% wastage of the cotton fabric that we call chindi. These are secondary waste cut pieces that end up in the landfill, dumps or taken back to make yarn. Bluecat Paper uses this in its hand paper making unit. This is possible because cotton contains very high cellulose and therefore is at the very heart of all handmade paper. Blue Cat's handmade paper is made from secondary waste such as chindi, banana, coffee husk, coconut husk , and lemon grass.  Chindi is collected from nearby manufacturing units, sorted by colour and then readied for the beating process. The  using ecofriendly, sustainable dyes so that the paper is available in various colours. What's more is that no water is wasted while making this paper as all the water used during production is recycled back to production. 

The Artisans

Local male and female artisans are elevated from unskilled to semi skilled status by training them on the handmade paper making process. This training program lasts for nearly 5 months.

Your Impact

The method followed for making this recycled, handmade paper is an ideal and environmentally friendly way of making paper. The resultant paper is 100% upcycled and sustainable because it does not require full grown trees to be felled and makes productive use of cotton waste, which would have otherwise ended up in a landfill. 

Why we like it

This handmade, upcycled file holder is a gorgeous way to organize all your documents, office supplies, pictures, receipts, cash, etc. or even a great gifts to someone who loves to stay neat and organised.
