It is our mission to promote the fact that handmade paper manufactured is completely eco-friendly and made by recycling waste materials like various types of cotton, jute, mill waste and is 100% wood-free.
A movement that started 80 years ago, with a vision to bring us together as citizens in a meaningful and collaborative manner, tightening our bonds as a self-sustaining community living in harmony. Marking the 150th birth anniversary year of Mahatma, we at Pune Handmade Papers rejuvenated this movement with design thinking and an understanding of the market. Handcrafted products with culturally rich designs and a touch of the contemporary makes Pune Handmade Papers stand out as compared to other eco-friendly alternatives. All our products are 100% -Wood Free, made from waste material and are biodegradable, giving us a proactive edge when it comes to sustainable living and building a greener tomorrow. They are designed keeping in mind a delicate interplay of the rustic and the contemporary, and can last upto 100 years, making this the perfect gift item or an item for everyday use.
Pune Handmade Papers has transformed the institute itself, hosting workshops, talks, performances and all manners of events. The space has quickly become a hub that encompasses the vision of the founders: to bring us together as citizens in a meaningful and collaborative manner, tightening our bonds as a self-sustaining community living in harmony.
Paper making has always been a tradition. Maharashtra State Khadi & Village Industries Board has taken up the development programme of Pune Handmade Papers in partnership with Studiomars - a leading design firm in Pune through its departmental unit. Where the mode techniques are adopted in the production process of handmade paper. Here, local artisans crafted beautifully textured paper made only from Cotton Waste, Jute Waste or Mill Waste, and continue to do so till this day as Pune Handmade Papers.
