Make Paper History

We discovered how polluting the paper industry is — and that better alternatives existed but nobody was picking them up. So we did. That was 2015. Since then, over 432 organisations have made the switch to stationery made without cutting a single tree. Same quality. A completely different story. One your brand gets to tell.

Why this exists

Paper has
a problem.

For over 400 years, paper has cost us forests. For notebooks. For stationery. For the everyday office. The alternatives existed. They just weren't getting picked up. We decided that was no longer acceptable.

"Written in forests turned into factories. Pages soaked in rivers that no longer flow. Without asking if there was a better way. There is."

Stationery made from stone quarry waste and agricultural stalks. No trees felled. No toxic chemicals. No water used in production. We were told we were crazy. Ten years and over 1,000 orders later — most clients keep coming back, and not a single tree has paid for it.

Stone paper — Paper on the Rocks
The process

From idea to
amplifying your brand.

We have done this over 1,000 times. It is never the same twice — but the process always is.

01
Step one

You choose

Pick your product — notebooks, notepads, print paper, or a full stationery set. Refine every detail: format, cover type, finishing, elastic bands, ribbons, foil or embossing.

Minimum 250 pieces. Volume pricing — the more you order, the lower the cost per unit. Pricing on request.
02
Step two

We design

Our studio builds a bespoke design around your logo, brand colours and imagery. We send a free mock-up before anything goes to production. You approve every detail.

Full colour outside cover · Full custom book block from 1,000+ pieces · Free design revision included
03
Step three

We deliver

Production takes 2 to 5 weeks from design approval. We ship worldwide and keep you informed at every stage of the process.

Hardcover: 3–5 weeks · Softcover: 2–4 weeks · Global shipping · Tracked delivery

The materials

Two paper types.
Zero trees.

Both come from what others throw away. Both write beautifully. Neither cost a tree.

Rockbook

Stone
paper

Rockbook — stone paper

Made from discarded limestone — quarry waste that would otherwise go nowhere. Waterproof, silky smooth, and unlike anything you have written on before.

  • CO₂ reduction vs traditional −67%
  • Water used in production 0 litres
  • Waterproof Yes
  • Bleach used None
  • Origin Quarry waste
Leafbook

Plant
paper

Leafbook — plant paper

Made from 100% agricultural waste — stalks and leaves that would otherwise be burned. Farmers receive a fair price for a material that was previously worthless to them.

  • Eco-footprint reduction −47%
  • Bleach used None
  • Pages Natural, unbleached
  • Writing feel Like traditional
  • Origin Agricultural waste

Ordering fewer than 250 pieces?

Our Essentials line is made for smaller orders. Same tree-free paper, same quality — available directly from our webshop without minimum volume requirements.

The difference

Before.
After.

Most branded stationery looks exactly like what it is. We find that a missed opportunity.

Before

Standard notebooks.
Made from trees.

  • Generic paper from deforested wood pulp
  • Logo uploaded via an online tool, fingers crossed
  • No design support — what you see is what you get
  • No story behind the product
  • Ends up forgotten in a drawer
  • Billions of trees cut annually. For this.
After

Full custom stationery.
Zero trees.

  • 100% tree-free paper — stone waste or agricultural leftovers
  • Bespoke design by our studio, built around your brand
  • Free mock-up before anything goes to production
  • A product with an unexpected origin story people actually tell
  • High-end feel — colleagues and clients ask where it came from
  • Real, certified impact with every order

our word for it.

We find them to be a rock-solid corporate gift whenever we are visiting foreign institutions. We always receive a lot of positive feedback, especially commenting on the silky feel of the rock paper. The order process was simple and the result was exactly what we had hoped for.

The product stands out for its commitment to environmental responsibility and its distinctive design. It quickly received praise and positive comments. The sight of these books in our Experience Center makes me very proud.

A notebook made out of stone paper was the perfect sustainable option. It really fits our brand. The collaboration was great and our customers felt really special. Not pushing, just storytelling.

The origin story of the plant paper, made from 100% agricultural waste, ties in perfectly with what we at Viisi stand for. We are very pleased with how our Rockbooks turned out. Sustainability and customisation are the default.

Still thinking?

What is the minimum order quantity?

How long does production take?

From design approval to delivery: 2 to 5 weeks. Hardcover notebooks and notepads ship within 3 to 5 weeks. Softcover within 2 to 4 weeks. We ship worldwide.

Can I see a mock-up before ordering?

Always. We create a free mock-up of your design before anything goes into production. You can also use our notebook builder to visualise your concept first.

What can I customise?
