FAQ
1. IS STONE PAPER COMPLETELY DEGRADABLE?
Stone paper consists of the following components only: Calcium carbonate and high density polyethylene. If it is no longer needed, there are various disposal options. Stone paper begins to dissolve under constant sunlight after a few months. After about a year it will be dissolved in dust completely – similar to eggshells. Stone paper can also be burnt without creating toxic gases. For this reason, it is particularly suitable for the typical consumer product carrier bags.
2. WHAT IS STONE PAPER MADE OF?
80% limestone powder and 20% HD polyethylene. Limestone, one of the most abundant raw materials, comes as a waste product from quarries. The plastic, which serves as a binding agent, can be obtained from old plastic bottles, from maize or sugar cane waste.
3. CAN STONE PAPER BE PRINTED JUST LIKE PAPER?
Rock Paper can be printed just as easily as conventional cellulose paper. There is even less ink required. Offset, Digital and UV printing are the ideal technologies for printing stone paper. Laser printers are rather unsuitable because they often develop strong heat. Stone paper starts to deform at 65 degrees Celsius.
I4. S STONE PAPER MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY THAN PLASTIC?
Yes, stone paper is more environmentally friendly than plastic. If plastics are not recycled they practically do not rot – unlike the paper substitute stone-paper. After several hundred years, plastic products will still be found in forests and oceans. Stone Paper contains only 20% of the plastic HD-PE (high density polyethylene). It consists of carbon and hydrogen atoms and burns completely to CO2 and water.
