Sweet success is getting greener
19th August 2009
Purely Digital has completed its first job on paper produced from bagasse – the fibrous waste product from sugar cane mills.
The sugar cane is first crushed to extract the juice and the fibrous residue from the stalks is then used in the production of pulp and paper products.
Nearly 3 tonnes of wet bagasse are left from 10 tonnes of sugar cane. Environmentally, paper produced from bagasse has the additional advantage of requiring less bleaching chemicals than wood pulp to produce a bright white paper.
The paper is also FSC Mixed Source!
Just want to thank you for making my little dream look so real now and for always producing such high quality print work. Looking forward to doing more with Purely in the future
