Growing Paper was founded with the aim of creating sustainable products that contribute to upcycling culture and bring beauty into the world. Today we are a proudly South African company that produces 100% hand-made, recycled, plantable, and biodegradable paper products. We keep as much of our production line using hand labour, in order to create jobs and thus provide permanent employment to a team of hardworking individuals from the local community. Our recycled seeded paper products are embedded with seeds that grow into flowers, herbs, or vegetables when planted. These products are not only environmentally friendly but also contribute to job creation. Growing Paper remains committed to entrepreneurship and innovation. We continually strive to expand our market presence, creating more jobs and opportunities. The company’s values revolve around being kind to the environment, community, and employees. We use only post-consumer waste paper and so keep 20 tons of waste paper off landfills, yearly, providing secure employment, living salaries, ongoing training, and life skills workshops to support our team’s growth and success. As we move forward, our focus on sustainable empowerment through our unique products drives our mission.
