What is plantable seed paper?
It's already in the name. Seed paper consists of two thin paper layers with seeds in between. After the paper has been used, it can be put into the soil and after a while, beautiful flowers will start growing. The growing paper can be printed with your logo, text or customised design. You can also order unprinted seed paper, in volumes from 25 and up. Seed paper is a unique, sustainable and great way to bring your message!
How does seed paper work?
Everyone can use it and make it work. That's the great thing about seed paper. Put it into the soil, moisturize and wait for the seeds to start growing. This sounds simple, but you're probably wondering how to get the best result. Check out this blog and you will read everything you need to know!
Plantable seed paper printed
Plantable paper is available in two thicknesses: 120 gsm and the more sturdy version of 200 gsm. The advantage of the thinner paper is the fact that seeds germinate quickly. On the other hand though, there's a slight risk of folding and tearing. The 200 gsm paper is perfectly suitable for cards and bags. It can be printed on both sides. This paper is handmade, so the amount of seeds may vary per sheet.
Customised seed paper special shapes
In addition to the regular sizes, we also offer special sizes. We can cut any shape you want, thanks to a custom-made cutting knife. With seed paper in a special shape, you will leave behind a lasting impression. The special shapes can of course be printed with your logo, text or customised design. After you've ordered, you will receive a free digital printing proof, on which you can see how the seed paper will be printed. We will not start printing until you've approved the digital proof.
