It’s the best paper in the world for writing everything from class notes to personal musing to travel journals to screenplay ideas. The blissfully smooth satin finish helps thoughts flow effortlessly as ink. That’s because our 90g velin veloute (prounounced ve-lin veu-lou-te) notebook paper is:
- Extra white and super smooth
- Ink-friendly – ink never smears and pencils don’t smudge
- Acid-free, archival quality
- Opaque – use both sides of a page
- Chlorine free
A gift of nature, a mineral called calcium carbonate, gives Clairefontaine paper its famous trademark qualities of extra white and ultra smooth.
Clairefontaine is currently the only European manufacturer making its own paper for its own products. This guarantees not only consistent quality, but also controls the environmental impact of the manufacturing process. We now supply 80% of our own energy.
Papermaking requires a lot of water. Clairefontaine’s respect for our natural resources began long before public opinion made it law.  Clairefontaine has received several environmental awards for developing an innovative clean papermaking technology.
The River Meurthe is the source of the water supply for the Vosges mill. The water is so clean when it leaves the facility local people can fish, swim and boat downstream within sight of the mill.
