Handmade Paper Products

Since the 1940s, the Handmade Paper Factory in the heart of Pondicherry has been producing artisan paper using raw materials sourced from the textile industry in Tiruppur, Tamil Nadu.

White cotton rag off-cuts, once destined for landfill, are carefully transformed through a series of skilled and environmentally conscious processes into vibrant, high-quality handmade paper.

Water, essential to the papermaking craft, is drawn sparingly from the factory’s own well. Once used, it is treated on site and repurposed to nourish the surrounding gardens and coconut trees — ensuring that every part of the process remains gentle on the earth.

Greeting Cards
