Fair trade papyrus
The direct purchase of papyrus from farmers in Egypt supports their families. Fair prices and regular purchase of papyrus products enable families to plan and invest for the long term.
The fair trade is more than import and distribution of papyrus. The personal relationship with the papyrus producers and the family members is important to us and guarantees that no middlemen in Egypt and Europe drive the prices up. This is important to us !
"We have understood that behind every sheet of papyrus there is a human being with basic needs."
So all family members as well as our team work together to keep the economic operation and production of Papyrus up and running and help with fair prices so that the families can live from it.
Papyrus from Egypt: Egyptian ancestor of paper
In Roman antiquity, a papyrus roll was the most important material for writing on and was produced purely by hand then, as it still is today. Papyrus bushes grew along the Nile. Greeks and Romans were convinced by the advantages of the papyrus of antiquity. Even today, important documents are recorded on a papyrus scroll because of the longevity of the material.
Papyrus Plants - Papyri Shop History
In small towns in Egypt, in the Nile Delta, papyrus leaves are still traditionally made from plants. Many rural families live among the papyrus fields. They harvest papyrus at almost any time of the year, the long perennial plants of the Cyprus grass, and process the raw material into papyrus leaves with great skill. Each leaf is carefully produced in more than ten individual steps, giving it its individual, handcrafted character. The papyrus roll is produced using the same technique as thousands of years ago.
