Matabooks is a young company from Germany. They are the first publisher to offer vegan novels and notebooks made from grass paper. They manufacture their products in a particularly sustainable and fair manner.
The books are biodegradable and are largely handmade.
Due to the naturally low lignin content in grass, no chemicals are used during production. Furthermore, the products are free of animal components, such as bone meal in bookbinding glue or animal-based dyes in printing ink.
As a natural product, grass is available in sufficient quantities in Germany. As a result, transport distances between the harvest and the paper mill are short â on average only 100 km. This reduces CO2 consumption by up to 75%.
