 We at Tree Free EcoPaper are delighted with your interest in our nonwood,
hemp/straw paper. This is our electronic catalog. If you would like a free
sample, lab certification of the fiber content and other information you
need to give us a physical mailing address to ship to. We'll ship the 
sample and information anywhere in the world.
 Our 50%hemp/50%straw paper is produced at our factory in Asia. It is
processed by emerging the raw fiber in a solution of water and quick lime
for 14 days. This breaks the fiber down without the use of toxic chemicals.
In fact, this is the same method in which paper was invented in 105 AD, so
this is an ancient sustainable technology. We whiten the pulp with hydrogen
peroxide instead of chlorine, so there are no toxic by-products from the
bleaching process. Our paper mills don't smell bad at all and all of our
manufacturing processes are nontoxic, unlike all wood-based paper mills.
 We ship all small shipments via United Parcel Service and they deliver to
your door, just about anywhere in the world. All prices below do not
include shipping. We add the UPS shipping charge to your bill along with
US$1.50 for our handling costs. You can find out their price by calling UPS
and asking them what it costs to ship the weight of your order to you from
Portland, Oregon, USA. For large orders we ship via the least expensive
method, via trucking firms in North America. We can send very large orders
to any seaport in the world CIF, in other words our price/cost includes
freight to your port. We can manufacture any type of paper from our nonwood
fiber and nonwood toxic processes. We'll be happy to quote you our price on
any type of paper.
