Tasteful Recycling: Tea-Infused Paper Collaboration by Büttenpapierfabrik Gmund and PAPER & TEA We’re thrilled to announce our innovative partnership with Gmund Papier, a leader in #ecological design paper, to bring sustainability to a new level. Together, we’ve created a unique, high-quality design paper containing 10% #tea leftovers, making a creative contribution to closing the #loops. At PAPER & TEA our commitment to sustainability drives us to find efficient waste management #solutions, and this collaboration is a perfect example. By reusing dry tea leftovers, which cannot be avoided at some points, we’re contributing to a circular economy, turning what was once waste into a new, environmentally friendly product. Gmund Papier, known for blending tradition with cutting-edge environmental solutions, has been instrumental in developing this innovative tea paper. Their expertise in #sustainable paper production makes them the ideal partner in this venture. The new tea-infused paper is already being used in our business cards and can be experienced in our stores soon. Each sheet is unique, with visible tea particles adding to its distinct look and feel. This partnership highlights our shared vision of protecting the planet through innovative products and sustainable practices. We’re excited to showcase this project at the upcoming UNFOLDED Festival on September 19th in Gmund, where the new tea paper will be unveiled. Together, we can make a meaningful impact, one sheet of paper at a time.
