Sustainability

We believe beautiful design shouldn’t come at the planet’s expense. At Papirlykke, we create with intention and produce only what’s needed — no stock, no waste, no shortcuts. Every project is made to order, and every piece is crafted with care.

We primarily letterpress print on soft, high-quality cotton paper — a byproduct of the textile industry. This paper is crafted from leftover cotton fibers from clothing and textiles that would otherwise be discarded. By transforming these fibers into beautiful stationery, no trees are felled for your invitations and every piece carries a story of care, creativity, and conscious design.

When we use wood-based paper it is always FSC-certified paper and very likely made from 100% recycled or sustainably sourced fibers.

Our production is local, small-scale and hands-on. We mix our inks ourselves. We print everything in-house. And we take pride in doing things the slow way — the right way — to ensure minimal waste and maximum impact.

We’re not perfect, but we’re mindful. Because we know that beauty can and should be gentle. On your eyes. On your fingertips. On our planet.
