The problem we're solving
The world today is drowning in plastic, affecting nearly 700 species, including endangered ones. In order to solve the plastic crisis, we as a community are switching to alternative materials, which mostly are wood-pulp based. Unfortunately, this solution is causing another problem, which is deforestation. To meet the demand of human activities, the world is losing its green cover at a previously unseen rate.
On the other hand, we have excess waste problem. Stubble burning is the most economic methods for cleaning the field after harvesting for low income farmers. Though it’s a cheap practice, its impact is hazardous in nature and is one of the reasons for many air born diseases like Asthma.

Our differentiator
We were able to solve all these interconnected problems by simply using abundantly available agricultural waste as raw material, instead of traditional wood pulp.
We source our raw materials from individual farmers in order to provide them with additional income. This also gives them economically better option to stubble burning.
Not only have we avoided stubble burning and air pollution with our solutions, we have also avoided over 1 million trees from being cut down for paper and packaging purposes. Every product that envoPAP makes is recyclable, biodegradable, compostable, marine-degradable. Furthermore, our materials have a 28%-45% lower carbon footprint than conventional products, according to an Intertek life-cycle analysis.

-Achieved industry-leading certifications by Intertek and B-Corp status. B Corporation status is one of the most stringent tests globally to prove social and environmental performance. Only 3,300 companies globally have achieved it, and envoPAP is the only UK-based company in the paper and packaging industry to be a Certified B Corporation
