Great product!

We run a home business and value and quality are important and so is the environment. The quality and value of this paper meets all our needs and reduces guilt!
So the blurb says: "Processed without using chlorine or chlorine compounds FSC certified and endorsed by the Rainforest Alliance Using 100% recycled paper saves trees...etc." So the process uses less chemicals which to my mind means less money spent in producing this paper - right? Well since I paid substantially more for this product it must mean that I'm paying for something else but I do not know what. Caché?
You should offer the 100% recycled paper to businesses and non-profits at your sale price to get them to buy more of it. At least put it on sale as often as you do the paper that is damaging to the environment.
[...] I just unwrapped the entire reem and placed it in a business drawer to keep it clean and straight. But the quality of the paper is good and I am glad it is from recycled material.
No complaints just the strange characteristic that - after running thru printer/copier - the pages are rather difficult to straighten (not "sticky" but similar effect). Can't tell why this is - paper doesn't feel different - but it's only a small annoyance and worth it for 100% recycled. WE WISH IT CAME IN LEGAL & LEDGER SIZES TOO.
