Reinventing printing, turning waste into worth

About us

We collect food waste from local markets and cafés and transform it into paper products designed for a more circular future.

Waste is simply a material waiting for its next purpose.

Our papers are suitable for writing, printing text and images, origami, furniture decor, and many more.

Why traced?

Real sustainability

traced paper is made from recovered food waste, not virgin wood pulp. Every sheet directly cuts down landfill volume and saves trees, water, and emissions. It’s not greenwashing - it’s a genuine circular economy solution.

Local waste,
Local impact

We source and process food waste right here in Victoria, turning what would rot into a renewable paper alternative. Supporting traced means backing a Victorian-made innovation that helps halve food waste by 2030.

Smarter system

We close the loop with our mail-back program. Get 10% off your next purchase by sending used traced paper back to us!

Workshops

traced runs workshops independently and with local schools, teaching practical papermaking techniques and how to properly handle materials at the end of their life cycle.
