here at porridge papers the sky is the limit! on any given day you can find us cranking out sheet after sheet of handmade paper goodness. our mill consists of a variety of crazy contraptions that have been custom-built to our specifications. from start to finish our equipment suits us perfectly. gretta, our blender, turns recycled fibers into pulp for the first step in paper reincarnation. from there our artisan papermakers form each sheet by hand with love, for that extra touch. next we give the sheets a good squeeze with 20 tons of hydraulic pressure- twice. enter our drying rooms and you’ll find yourself surrounded by towering fans and other apparatuses. you won’t know whether you’re in a papermill or training for space camp. after the sheets are dried they’re peeled, trimmed, letterpress, offset, or screen printed, die cut, scored, perforated, punched, embossed, debossed, folded, bound, embellished, glued, wrapped, packaged, boxed, shipped, delivered, unwrapped, touched, smelled, adored, and maybe even planted, grown and enjoyed all over again in its new plant form. as far as paper goes, the whole experience is nothing short of enlightening.
