A distinctively different note block for use by the phone, for shopping lists or in the office. Made from paper composed of 75-80% elephant dung, rice paddy husks and office waste, and a cover featuring a 'bas-relief' elephant, moulded from elephant dung. The paper has a soft vellum-like feel and is beautiful to use. It is tree free, environmentally friendly and sustainable. There are no chlorines or acids used in the handmade manufacturing process and only salt dyes are used for colouring.

Manufactured in Sri Lanka, a country where traditionally elephants and humans have competed over scarce land resources resulting in injury on both sides, the production of the paper directly contributes to the villager's income, linking it to the survival of the elephants. Maximus Elephant Paper was recognised in 2006 as the winner of the BBC World Challenge, a global competition for small businesses that have shown enterprise and innovation at a grass roots level. The paper again proved its green credentials, winning the Co-op America's 'Green Business' of the year Leadership Award in 2008, recognizing the extraordinary leadership efforts of the business that has used its position in the marketplace to organize consumers and businesses together to build a more socially just and ecologically sustainable economy.

A percentage of sales proceeds go to the elephant orphanage, Millennium Elephant Foundation; affiliated with the World Society for the Protection of Animals.
