Across the Collection
Sustainably Sourced
100% Recycled Pages

With the settings of our many stories in mind, we wanted the pages that compose both of these books to be crafted with 100% post-consumer fiber. Occasionally you’ll find a storied spec of this paper’s past from the recycled fiber within — these are the beauty marks of a better choice for the environment.

Press Printed Images

Like every album in our collection, the images in your book are press printed into the pages, instead of using the more common silver halide printing method. Press printing renders the images with a warm and pleasant aesthetic, while minimizing the impact on the environment. (Bigger impact with a smaller footprint? We call that a win-win.)
Made Right Here
Crafted in the U.S.A
![hands handling recycled fiber used to make paper for photo books](https://assets.artifactuprising.com/assets/campaigns/2020/Q4/11-11+Softcover+Collection+Blog/Softcover-3-MadeInUSA.jpg)
All of these books are brought to life right here in the U.S.A. From the paper (which is sourced locally at Mohawk Paper Mill — the oldest family run mill in the country) to the printing and assembly, every step of the book-making process takes place close to home.
The Softcover Photo Book
One of the first books created in our collection, the Softcover Photo Book brings design-forward versatility to the telling of any tale. Coveted for its textured finish, 100% recycled interiors, minimal cover designs, and ability to hold up to 300 pages (or as little as 30!) — it’s a book that you’ll keep coming back to time and time again.
"The book looked great and the biggest incentive for me is that you use recycled paper for many of your products. That’s a win for me!"
—Julie Y., California
