Some FACTS on paper
Whatever the amount of paper that you use,
requires more than twice as much its weight in wood to produce it.
The first paper was made by Tsai Lun, an
official in the court of a Chinese emperor in 105 A.D. He beat up old fishing
nets, rags, and ropes in running water, spread the pulp on the screen of fine
bamboo strips and dried it in the sun.
Paper reached India around the 12th century.
Recycling waste paper is different from
recycling cloth, as the latter is not environmentally friendly even though the
results are more durable and attractive. Cloth can be recycled in a variety of
ways but paper can only be recycled as paper or packages.
What we DO for ourselves and for you:
We at the KRITI team have made paper reuse and
recycling a part of our work ethic for the past 16 years and involved over a 200
individuals and organizations in this process. Infact, we have a record of
asking our friends for waste paper since we reuse all of the paper generated
in-house. We want to share our ideas and efforts with other individuals and
organisations, to create truly eco-friendly workplaces and homes, to save the
environment and financial resources both.
From the point of waste
paper generation to storage and disposal, we assist you in following some
simple steps for waste paper management and even offer you eco-friendly
disposal, storage and disposal materials at a contribution. We offer to ‘barter
waste paper’ for recycled handmade paper stationary products.
To start with, we can conduct a ‘waste paper rethink,
reduce and reuse’ workshop with your staff, to create an eco-friendly workplace,
if you so like, or assist you in other ways. So, if you’d like to set in motion
the ‘save paper’ programme at your workplace or home, write to us.
We also welcome you to share
your own ideas with us so that together we can set up a creative,
self-disciplined and sustainable way of work and life together. Imagine not
having to spend money on buying paper stationary, instead creating your own and
that too from waste!
