CONSERVING NATURE BY RECYCLING WASTE


Its been an exciting year for us here at Paper High as we have started working with new WFTO (World Fair Trade Organisation) producers such as Get Paper in Kathmandu and Noahs Ark and TARA Projects in Delhi. Weve worked together to design and develop beautiful new products for the home that complement our existing ranges. Weve also been working closely with our existing producers to evolve established ranges and create new products. Were really excited to be working with such inspirational people and hope that you enjoy our new products as much as we have enjoyed making them, meeting new producers and seeing old friends.

This brochure was produced in a carefully audited supply chain which meets the strict criteria of Responsible Print. The paper is 100% recycled post consumer waste. Each booklet has a carbon footprint of 0.74 kg which has been offset by making a payment to a portfolio of quality carbon offset projects. No virgin fibres have been used in this booklet and no ecosystems or habitats have been disturbed when the paper was produced. Paper High minimises our carbon footprint by importing goods by sea instead of air and by offsetting carbon emissions when we visit our producers. Recognized by BAFTS as a Fair Trade importer since 2002.

Just had to let you know how glad I a m that I bought your handmade leather bound (cotton paper) journal rather than a simple paper product. My beautiful journal has been used to record my holiday thoughts and was nearly half full when a bottle of water in my bag burst and drenched it. I imagined having to peel apart each page as it dried to save my treasured words as you would for normal paper, but no, it just dried like cloth and, apart from smudges from a gel pen entry, it has dried out well enough to continue using. Its a little crinkled, but I think it looks all the more intrepid.

Our new distressed white mango wood stars, hearts and ceramic drawer boxes are made by WFTO accredited producers in India. They are made entirely by hand using traditional skills handed down from generation to generation. Mango trees have an extremely long life but eventually do stop bearing fruit and are replaced by younger trees. As India produces, by far, the most mangos in the world this results in a massive industry using one of the most sustainable woods known to man. The ceramic drawers are hand painted by skilled artisans.

Established in 1972, their objective is to help rural communities to become self sufficient and sustainable by working with solar energy, water, education, health care, rural handicrafts, communication, womens empowerment and wasteland development. The work they do is truly amazing and an inspiration. We look forward to furthering our ranges in the future.

38 OUR PRODUCERS
THE PEOPLE BEHIND OUR BEAUTIFUL FAIR TRADE PRODUCTS

SARI AND LEATHER All the products in this range are made by a small family business in Rajasthan who we have worked with for many years following Fair Trade guidelines. We visit every year and we now know the producers and their families well and consider them true friends. We are proud that together we are able to provide people in rural villages fairly paid work that would have otherwise been difficult to find. The khadda paper used in the products is handmade using recycled cotton leftover from the massive garment industry in India. The paper is made by a charity in rural Rajasthan that promotes womens education and their social standing in the rural villages. The beautiful sari material is handmade using man-made fibres because we are uncomfortable with the traditional methods used to make silk.

MAXIMUS Made by skilled and creative artisans using elephant dung paper from the Maximus Elephant Conservation Trust, our Elephant dung products are the ultimate in recycling. Made with 75% dung and 25% recycled paper the elephants are in charge of the pulping process of paper as they digest their food! Maximus has its workshop in the grounds of the Millennium Elephant Foundation (MEF), a wonderful small charity that cares for sick, old and disabled elephants. The foundation is also working hard to resolve the conflict between elephants and local communities, a critical concern as the elephants natural habitat decreases and they turn to eating farmers crops. Working with initiatives like Maximus, they are able to show the positive relationship local economies can have with these amazing animals - they pay villagers to collect the elephant dung used to make the paper. These products help the foundation continue its incredible work.

THE BAREFOOT COLLEGE (TILONIA) Our rugs and bell totas are handmade by the Barefoot College, an inspirational non-government organisation making a great difference to communities in Rajasthan, India. Since 1972 the Barefoot College has been providing basic services and solutions to problems in rural communities, with the objective of making them self-sufficient and sustainable. These Barefoot solutions can be broadly categorised into solar energy, water, education, health care, rural handicrafts, peoples action, communication, womens empowerment and wasteland development. We have seen for ourselves the incredible work the college is doing and are truly inspired by it. The products themselves are made from rags left over from the garment industry.

GET PAPER INDUSTRIES All our colourful giftwrap is handmade by Get Paper Industries (GPI), an incredible, socially aware cooperative in Nepal. WFTO members GPI has won many awards for the charity work it does in the local area, from supporting people affected by HIV and Aids to establishing schools to support the education of underprivileged children. Milan, the founder member, is a man with an amazing passion for life, and he and his team are making a big difference. The beautiful paper they use is handmade from Lokta, a shrub that grows in the foot hills of the Himalayas at altitudes in excess of 6500ft and is abundant in supply. Harvesting this sustainable plant helps preserve the fragile ecosystem in Nepal and gives regular fairly paid work to the people of the many mountain villages. We are over the moon to sponsor 4 children at one of GPIs schools.

NEPALI FELT Most of our colourful felt products are handmade by one of the leading, and most inspiring, felt making producers in Nepal. It is a Fair Trade company which provides training and work for women within some of the poorest communities in Nepal - to date the company has empowered more than 100 women. It is also committed to conservation through its choice of raw materials and, for example, by using solar energy to help run its operations. All the products are handmade from wool using only natural colours and dyes and created using traditional methods. Instead of weaving the wool, felt is created by applying heat, moisture and pressure to the wool to entangle the fibres and create a beautiful end result.

ACP The Association for Craft Producers (ACP) are based in the Kathmandu valley in Nepal and are a not-forprofit, Fair Trade organisation and WFTO member providing design, marketing, management, and technical services to low-income Nepalese craft producers. ACP are inspirational in their mission to support the local crafts people and bring their work to a global market in exchange for fair wages and benefits. The shared expertise of ACP means that they can blend traditional craft with modern design and work in partnership with us to create beautiful products exclusively for Paper High. ACP are committed not only to Fair Trade but the environment too; for example, its Kathmandu workshops and offices have installed a waste water treatment plant and have a rainwater harvesting system. We are really excited to be working with ACP and are looking forward to a long and fruitful relationship.

NOAHS ARK We came across Noahs Ark a few years ago and since then have wanted to work with them. They are a fantastic Fair Trade organisation and work with some very talented producer groups. Their products are incredibly well made and the founder, Samuel, is an inspirational man. Noahs Arks mission is to commit themselves and the producer groups they work with to Fair Trade principles with the goal of changing the lives of grass root artisans. Their focus on education and capacity building enables the people they support to become more aware of fair working conditions and the environment in order to prove the value, cultural heritage and beauty of their hand made products. The longer term effect is that they are working collectively towards poverty eradication. Noahs Ark are members of the WFTO and Fair Trade Forum India. They work with around 49 different artisan groups, involving approximately 500 artisans.

TARA TARA (Trade Alternative Reform Action) Projects are another WFTO and Fair Trade Forum India organisation that we have wanted to work with for a long time. We are really pleased that we have now the opportunity to work with such dedicated people. TARA Projects began in the early 1970s with the object of creating opportunities and support for economically disadvantaged home based artisans and crafts people of Delhi and its surrounding areas. Over the years the project has extended its work into the adjoining states of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Rajasthan. TARA Projects provides services to enable the production and marketing of handicrafts following Fair Trade principles, alongside providing education and support to empower the grass roots crafts people. At the heart of TARA Projects work is a dedication for eradicating poverty by fighting against the exploitation and illiteracy of the producers and its working communities.
