Coffeenotes notebooks are made entirely in the UK, using paper made from discarded coffee cups. Not the ceramic kind – that would be strange – but the disposable ones. The cups are collected and baled, and the single-use plastic removed and used for energy recovery. Then paper fibres are added to the cups and made into Coffeenotes. Which, of course, can be recycled and made into more Coffeenotes! That’s ‘cup cycling’.

The A5 Medio Wiro Notebook is double wire-bound for extra stability. The wires are uncoated, which means they can be recycled. It features 80 sheets of plain paper. The dark brown cover includes 15% organic coffee residue.
