There’s an innovative paper product on the market. Eco-conscious adults might love it because it saves countless trees and creates notebooks from a naturally renewable and sustainable source. Little kids might love it because it’s made of poop.
While the third-grader in us all might have a chuckle about the fact that these products are made from dung, the paper products offer some serious environmental advantages. The Great Elephant Poo Poo Paper Company has teams in North American, Australia, Asia and Europe and sells its products worldwide.
The poo-inspired paper-making technique is an age-old tradition that the company has updated to offer an ecologically responsible, affordable (and sanitary) paper supply today. The company says they can make about 25 large sheets of paper – or 10 standard sized-journals – from a single piece of poo. That’s efficient.
According to fans at EcoGeek.com, the poo paper is made by taking a fibrous material out of dried elephant dung. This fibrous extract is rinsed, boiled and combined with pineapple and banana fibers to make an eco-friendly sheet of paper.
As if this weren’t environmentally beneficial enough, the Great Elephant Poo Poo Paper Company also contributes a portion of all profits to elephant welfare and conservation programs. This is an environmentally sound and smart business investment on the company’s part since elephants are their major supplier.
There is an obvious question that comes to mind for consumers considering purchasing these products: Does the paper smell like poop? Well, according to the company, no. The products smell like "normal stationary products" and they have been experimenting with different aromas.
The Great Elephant Poo Poo Paper Company offers journals, notebooks, photo albums, paper flowers and assorted "Happy Peace of Poo" items – meaning this paper with a purpose has something for everyone. You can explore their website to learn more – just watch where you step.
