In a world where sustainability is no longer optional, the copier paper we choose has a bigger impact than most people realize. Every sheet of conventional white paper requires fresh trees, intensive chemical processing, and significant amounts of water and energy. Fortunately, businesses today have a better alternative - 100% recycled and unbleached paper.

At EkoScrib, we believe sustainability should be practical, high-quality, and accessible. Therefore, our paper is made from 100% post-consumer paper waste without any bleaching, preserving its natural off-white appearance while significantly reducing environmental impact. Our products are backed by FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council®) and GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certifications, ensuring responsible sourcing and verified recycled content.

What is Recycled Paper?

Recycled paper is produced by converting waste paper into pulp, reducing reliance on deforestation. Unlike other copier paper brands that use only a small percentage of recycled content, EkoScrib uses 100% post-consumer waste, giving discarded paper a second life. This conserves forests, reduces landfill waste, and promotes responsible resource management.

Why choose Unbleached Copier Paper?

Most conventional copier paper is extensively bleached to achieve its bright white appearance. Unbleached copier paper skips this unnecessary process, retaining its natural off-white colour while reducing the use of chemicals, energy, water, and reflecting its recycled origin.

The result obtained is an elegant, premium paper with a warm, natural appearance. This subtle off-white shade has become increasingly popular among environmentally conscious brands, educational institutions, creative professionals, and businesses looking to align their products with sustainable values.
