2.5 billion takeaway coffee cups are discarded every year in the UK. The Seawhite Cupcycling Sketchbook takes a portion of those cups and turns them into 140gsm All-Media cartridge paper — acid-free, chlorine-free, sized for wet strength, and 100% vegan.
The paper performs just like standard Seawhite cartridge paper: pencil, pen, ink, charcoal, and light washes all work well. The difference is entirely in the materials — a genuinely circular product that turns a waste stream into something creative.
Available in A5 and A4 in landscape orientation, wire-bound. For artists who want their materials to reflect their values without compromising on the quality of what they're making.
FAQ
Does the recycled paper perform differently? No — the 140gsm Cupcycling paper has the same all-media performance as standard Seawhite cartridge paper. The recycled origin doesn't affect the surface, sizing, or working properties.
Is this paper suitable for wet media? Like all Seawhite 140gsm cartridge paper, it handles light washes and ink well. For heavy wet watercolour techniques, use a dedicated watercolour paper at 300gsm or above.
