NATURAL NOTEBOOK COMPANY NATURAL NOTEBOOK COMPANY

Natural Notebook Co offers a unique new range of eco-friendly notebooks and sketchbooks, filled with recycled or FSC certified Fabriano paper, the covers of which are made from straw (some mixed with leaves and/or grass). All the products are made by hand in former farm premises, situated in the heart of West Sussex.

We are a family business with more than 20 years’ experience in making paper pulp from straw and other agricultural waste products. In 2010, our vision to live and work closely and respectfully with Nature came to fruition with the birth of the Natural Notebook Company. Our idea was to return to more traditional ways of working, reflecting Nature’s simplicity.

Here is how we create our covers…

Our carbon footprint is kept low by using locally grown straw that would otherwise be composted or burnt (as happens with 40% of British straw). As the liquid in which the straw is dipped is used many times over, there is no liquid waste and our water consumption is thus reduced, and what little energy is used in the production process is supplied by our own solar panels. A specially constructed frame allows a large quantity of sheets to dry naturally, though an adapted bicycle system can speed up the process, if necessary – and help to keep us fit and healthy! Once the straw pulp sheets are pressed and flattened, the covers are made, with all off-cuts being returned to the early part of the process for recycling.
