Its paper looks ordinary enough, but unlike the usual paper, it is water-resistant, bug-resistant, and it does not burn easily. What is more amazing is that it is actually made from stone. To be exact, it is made from waste marble that is left over from flooring or other products.

Oh how cool!! :right-on:

Very ingenious

Even though it costs 20 per cent more than regular paper, stone paper is gaining popularity in Europe and the US.

"We now have patents in more than 40 countries around the world. Since our material is environmentally friendly, it's more popular with advanced countries that are more environmentally conscious. Right now, they're our major customers," said Wang.

The company counts the White House among its prominent customers

Very impressive
Thanks for sharing!

When they say that they are going public, I'm wondering if that means we'll be seeing it The Office Depot or if they will be selling shares of the company. I think that this company would be a great investment.

Beware the man who has one gun, he probably knows how to use it.

It would be nice to have paper like that to do things. I wonder if it is available around here anywhere? Maybe I could buy some on line somewhere.
