About

Karst Stone Paper is an innovative brand that produces sustainable and eco-friendly paper products. They use a unique manufacturing process that combines recycled stone powder with non-toxic resin to create a paper that is waterproof, durable, and tear-resistant. The Brand was founded in 2017 by two friends, Kevin Garcia and Jonny Wray, with the mission of creating sustainable alternatives to traditional paper products.

 

The Paper

The paper used by Karst Stone Paper is made from calcium carbonate (recovered from mining waste) and non-toxic resin (made from recycled plastics). This combination creates a paper that is waterproof, tear-resistant, and does not require trees, water, or bleach to produce.

The production process of Karst Stone Paper uses 60% less energy than traditional paper production methods and emits 80% less carbon. The paper  is 100% recyclable, and it can be repurposed in a variety of ways, including as stone gravel, road base, and construction material.

Karst Stone Paper offers a variety of sustainable paper products, including notebooks, planners, sketchbooks, and more. They also partner with businesses to create custom-branded sustainable paper products.
