1. 0:00Are bamboo notebooks sustainable? It depends which part is bamboo.
2. 0:05Bamboo can mean a board or veneer cover, fibre fabric, pulp pages, or a look-alike synthetic. Name the bamboo part in writing. Its regrowth advantage stops at raw material.
3. 0:17Ask for evidence, not a logo: a licence code you can look up, the exact claim type, and which part it covers. Bamboo-pulp paper needs fibre evidence.
4. 0:27Next, disclose glues and coatings; resin-bound board isn't compostable. Pages usually outweigh the cover, so document them separately, and plan to separate the parts.
5. 0:39Finally, word a component-level claim: 'cover made with certified bamboo, pages from recycled paper', if documented. Never call the whole notebook eco-friendly.
6. 0:50Filled to the last page beats discarded early.
7. 0:55Collect these documents before artwork, and request them with your quote.
