Objects made for use
Objects made for use, where paper ends up as waste.
Four objects today, a fifth one soon. Each is designed for a real use, then for the next ones: objects made for use, not packaging.
The material
Stone powder.
NotPaper is made from calcium carbonate, sourced notably from marble offcuts from furniture making and construction. In plain terms: stone, given a second life.

01
The stone
Marble and limestone offcuts, rich in calcium carbonate.

02
The powder
Ground into a fine powder, it becomes the base of the NotPaper material.

The object made for use
A flexible, printable, premium material that withstands water, grease, rubbing and tearing.
Paper passes for the green choice. Yet it takes trees, water and bleaching, and the EUDR now regulates its entire supply chain.

What you gain
A useful object, not future waste.
An object made for use serves once, then again. Your customers keep it, reuse it and associate it with your brand for a long time.
-
The brand remains present
Water, grease, rubbing, handling: the support keeps its standard.
Your image does not degrade in the customer's hand.
-
The object remains desirable
Premium feel, crisp printing, paper-like finish: the support keeps its appeal.
It extends the experience instead of being immediately discarded.
-
Use continues
Bag, map, card, label: the support can live beyond first contact.
Less immediate waste, more real presence.
