Arbor- sustainable notebooks
Arbor – Sustainable Notebooks aims to reduce paper waste by reusing one-sided printed paper. We want to use paper to its fullest potential. With the help of people with a distance to the labour market, we produce these beautiful, social and sustainable conscious notebooks. The artsy covers of our notebooks are provided by the Jan van Eyck art academy and the back covers are provided by our partners The Student Hotel and Gulpener. From front to back it is all waste paper, which means no notebook is the same! Starting 2020
Maybe you have seen our green paper collection boxes across faculties of the UM. Since January 2020 we are proud partner of SA Helix and we will also reuse your one-sided printed course books for the production of our unique notebooks! Our notebooks are great for quick notes and also function as a really nice sustainable present.
