These handy 50 sheet 105gsm note pads are part of our ethical stationary range and are made from 100% genuine post-consumer recycled paper products. The manufacturer of these notep ads is passionate about educating people around the real language of what it means to be a truly 100% recycled product as there are a lot of misconceptions around other products and their recycled status. What it really means to be 100% Recycled Paper: To be genuinely recycled the product must be 100% post-consumer recycled. This means that the paper it is made from is paper that has left the paper mill, been purchased and used. After the paper is no longer able to be used for it’s intended purpose the paper is collected and reconstituted into paper again. Most of the paper collected is low grade paper scrap like cardboard cartons , newspapers, magazines etc. When recycled into paper and cardboard again faint glimmers of odd coloured material can be seen upon very close inspection. All white copy papers that claim to be 100% Australian recycled use this trick wording to give the impression that it is 100% recycled when it is not. Grammatically the 100% refers to Australian not the % recycled. Generally the thin brown paper such as used in paper bags is not real recycled paper as when the paper is truly 100% recycled, the paper is often much thicker to have strength. By supporting companies like EcoCern, we create less demand for paper products that destroy our native forests. Note Pad Dimensions: 150mm x 90mm Show more
