OGAMI\u2019S REPAP IS ECO-FRIENDLY PAPER MADE FROM STONE<\/p>\n
Despite the popularity of\u00a0e-readers<\/a>\u00a0and computers, Americans still use about\u00a071 million tons<\/a>\u00a0of paper per year \u2014 only 63 percent of which is ever recycled. So when a paper alternative comes along that is not only environmentally friendly but also stylish, we get excited. But what makes Ogami\u2019s Repap\u00a0even more interesting is that it isn\u2019t made of cotton or hemp like most paper alternative; instead, it\u2019s made from\u00a0calcium carbonate, which is a byproduct of limestone.<\/p>\n Repap \u2014 that\u2019s \u201cpaper\u201d spelled backward \u2014 is made using calcium carbonate, which is recovered from stone quarries and waste from the building industry. The manufacturing process doesn\u2019t require any\u00a0petroleum<\/a>, trees or water and the paper itself doesn\u2019t contain acids or chlorine. And since the product is naturally white, no bleaching is necessary to get that familiar paper look.<\/p>\n Unlike paper, Repap is waterproof and can be erased cleanly for re-use. But if you do decide to toss it out, Repap doesn\u2019t require a special\u00a0recycling<\/a>\u00a0facility because it is photo-biodegradable in 14 to 18 months. Ogami sells two Repap collections; one is a brightly-colored \u201cQuotes\u201d collection and the other is a sleeker \u201cProfessional\u201d collection, both of which include a variety of notebooks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" OGAMI\u2019S REPAP IS ECO-FRIENDLY PAPER MADE FROM STONE Despite the popularity of\u00a0e-readers\u00a0and computers, Americans still use about\u00a071 million tons\u00a0of paper per year \u2014 only 63 percent of which is ever recycled.
