Nothing is discarded here. What the world throws away, we transform giving forgotten cotton fibres a second life more beautiful than their first.
Every choice we make from fibre to finish asks the same question: does this leave the world better? The answer, always, is yes.
Our paper begins where cloth ends. One hundred percent textile cotton waste, rescued from landfill and reborn as something worth holding.
Most industries leave a mark on the atmosphere. We're working to erase it one slow, sun-dried, handcrafted sheet at a time.
In the workshops of Sanganer, Jaipur where afternoon light falls in long golden strips and the river Saraswati once ran clear we make paper the way it has always been made.
Slowly. By hand. With materials the earth itself offers.
Kagzi Industries has been a quiet keeper of this tradition since 1990, supplying India and the world with paper that carries the imprint of its maker. We are not a factory. We are a family of paper-lovers artisans who understand that the deckled edge of a handmade sheet is not a flaw, but a signature.
We partner with major global brands - TESCO, TARGET, CARREFOUR, PIER ONE, INDISKA - and serve independent designers, publishers, and luxury labels across 30+ countries.
The primary fibre strong, long-lasting, archival quality. Paper made from cotton rag can outlive paper made from wood pulp by centuries.
Indigenous to India, khadi fibres give our specialty papers their uniquely textured character rough where they should be, soft where they must be.
Indigo, turmeric, rose, pomegranate colours that come from the same earth the paper was made in. Gentle on skin. Gentle on the planet.
The silent ingredient. Every litre used in our process is treated and returned to the ground. Paper should nourish the world, not deplete it.

THE KAGZI FAMILY, JAIPUR

Some specialty papers incorporate khadi fibre, pineapple leaf fibre, or other natural plant-based materials. All input materials are biodegradable and sustainably sourced.
Yes. All our handmade cotton rag paper is acid-free and archival quality - meaning it will not yellow, crack, or degrade over time. Suitable for fine art, legal documents, and anything designed to last.
Our standard range runs from 120 GSM to 250 GSM. Custom weights are available on request for B2B orders. Please include your GSM requirement in your enquiry.
Our standard maximum sheet size is 22 × 30 inches. Custom sizes are available. Please specify your required dimensions in your enquiry form.
A deckle edge is the natural, organic, uneven edge created during the sheet-lifting stage of handmade papermaking. It appears on all four sides of a handmade sheet and is the hallmark of authentic handmade paper. It cannot be replicated by machines. Many of our customers specifically seek it out as a design feature.
New collections, process stories, sustainable living guides, and early access to limited editions once a month, never more.
