Modern Holiday Invitations Mad From Recycled Paper + Treefree Papers
Invitesite's selection of Modern and Unique Holiday Invitations take celebrations to new levels by incorporating recycled materials into fabulously modern designs. We use really handsome substances: cotton rag papers, heavy and handsome 100% post consumer recycled paper. Some plantable papers. (with cosmo seeds).
Some papers are made from post harvest waste, like sugarcane and mango fibers. If we print for you, we use vegetable based inks. The company founders have decades of experience with fine (letterpress) printing and environmental papers: so you are getting the best materials the world has to offer.
In our opinion, 30% recycled content just does not make the grade as a sincerely eco paper, because those papers are still 70% virgin wood pulp. Some paper suppliers are touting 30% postconsumer recycled paper as green or the eco alternative. 30% recycled has been the US government mandated percentage since 1998, for government use paper.
Until the markets for recycled paper expand and become commonplace, trees will continue to be cut down to make paper. This, from the Union for Concerned Scientists:
"The growing presence of recycled paper has led many people to believe that all paper is now made from recycled materials. This unfortunate misconception has actually decreased demand for recycled paper, causing manufacturers to produce less. As a result, more than 90 percent of printing and writing paper still comes from virgin tree fiber.
The benefits of producing paper from recycled fibers are many: fewer trees cut down, less water and energy consumed, less pollution generated. And now that studies have shown today's recycled paper products are comparable to conventional products in quality, performance, and cost, the case for buying recycled is stronger than ever."
