"Bamboo paper is a fine thing!"

High quality postcards

No paper like any other.

In our search for the right premium paper for our little darlings, we took a close look at the types of paper available on the market. For us, the focus was on sustainability, a pleasant feel and excellent printing properties. After a lot of trial and error, feeling and comparing, we finally decided on a paper made of bamboo. Apart from the bamboo content in the paper, it was important to us that the postcard not only looked like a small work of art, but also felt good. We differ significantly from other postcard providers and do not use standard paper. Our paper is 350gsm and is made from 90% bamboo fiber and 10% cotton with an uncoated finish. This mixture results in a particularly pleasant feel with excellent print quality. Our postcards (14.8cm x 10.5cm) are printed in Germany near our hometown of Wuppertal with a lot of love and passion in a selected print shop.

Facts about the bamboo plant

The bamboo plant belongs to the grass family - once planted, it grows and grows and grows

The first harvest can take place after two to three years, after which the grass can be cut every three to four months to positively influence its growth

Over the years, its roots form a kind of underground network from which new grasses sprout again and again. So we are dealing with a self-renewing resource

In addition, this root network protects the soil from erosion

Bamboo is very frugal: it thrives on depleted soil, requires little water and does not need fertilizers or pesticides

Bamboo plantations return nutrients to the soil and thus create fertile soil

Bamboo produces about 35% more oxygen than trees and absorbs larger amounts of carbon dioxide
