Recycled White 150gsm Cartridge Description
We call this paper Bergung, the German word for salvage, because they’re made with 100% recycled paper. By popular demand we have sourced 150gsm recycled cartridge paper made entirely of post-consumer waste to produce an eco-friendly sketchbook. As every millimeter of this paper is made of recycled waste there can be random faint flecks, which gives the paper a nice natural look. Our recycled white paper is still acid free and made with a twin wire process, so that you can work on both sides of a page. This recycled cartridge is perfect for dry media, such as pencils and charcoal.

This black cartridge is well suited to dry media, such as crayon or chalk.
Cappuccino Brown 150gsm Cartridge Description
Always keen to meet the needs of our customers we’ve been working with our trusted suppliers to produce a new standard in brown paper sketchbooks. Say goodbye to thin, “paper bag” quality pages with the Cappuccino Pig. A 150gsm brown cartridge paper containing 30% recycled coffee cups, straight from the world’s first disposable coffee cup recycling plant. We’ve made sure this Cappuccino brown paper is acid free and archival grade to protect your work. This brown cartridge is well suited to dry media, such as pencils or chalk.
Binding
Our books are spiral bound with durable wire binding. Wiro-bound sketchbooks last longer than glued ones which deteriorate over time, plus they don’t fall apart when you pull a page out like traditional bound books. Combined with our tough covers, the spiral binding lets you stand the book up, lie it completely flat or fold it over to present your work.
