Using residual waste to make strong, smooth and tensile tree-free paper

PAPER HIGHLIGHTS

Flax Paper – Tree-Free Paper Made from Decorticated Flax Fiber

Flax paper is made from residual flax fiber — specifically, decorticated fiber left over from the early stages of linen garment production. At Bluecat Paper LLP, we collect this byproduct and convert it into clean, functional tree-free paper.

Flax is a unique natural fiber. It is long, smooth, and tensile. These properties remain in the paper, giving it strength, a fine finish, and a subtle translucency. The texture is light, and the sheet surface is free from additives or coatings. Each sheet reflects the natural structure of the fiber.

Our use of flax supports circularity in the textile and paper industries — turning a byproduct from one process into a resource for another.

What Is Flax Paper Used For?

Flax paper is suitable for:

- Wrapping and interleaving

- Tags and folders

- Cards, inserts, and covers

- Packaging

- Journals and design applications

Because flax fibers are long and fine, the paper forms well and holds together with minimal binder. It has a clean appearance, and the slight translucency gives it a distinct presence when layered or backlit.

What Is Flax Paper Made From?

We use decorticated flax fiber — the waste material separated during the first stage of processing flax for linen textiles. This is before spinning or weaving begins.

Our process:
1. Residual flax fibers are collected from textile units.

2. The fibers are cleaned and pulped using water and mechanical treatment.

3. Sheets are formed and dried using a low-energy method.

4. No bleach, dyes, or synthetic additives are used.

The result is a clean, natural Tree-Free Paper that highlights the fiber’s original qualities.

Why Flax Paper Matters

- Made from pre-spinning textile waste

- No trees, no bleach, no coatings

- Smooth, lightly translucent, and tensile

- Recyclable and compostable

- Suitable for packaging, wrapping, and design

At Bluecat Paper LLP, flax paper reflects our belief that waste can be valuable — and that paper can be made with care, using what already exists.
