This year students can fill their backpacks with the Pistachio Back to School Notebook collection and know that their purchase will have a direct impact on the environment.  The notebooks are made from 100% post-consumer waste recycled paper, printed with vegetable-or soy-based ink in a wind-powered Canadian print shop.  Kids will be proud to tell fellow students and teachers that the recycled paper used in the Pistachio Back to School Collection helped to save 387 trees, divert 11,166 kg of solid waste and use 1,056,259 L less water than if the collection were made of virgin fibres.

The collection comes in a variety of colourful and inspiring designs and features a Large Three Subject Notebook, Large One Subject Notebook, and Medium Three Subject Notebook (each sold separately).

Pistachio Notebooks are available at ChaptersIndigo stores across Canada.

What CanadianParents are saying…

Who can say no to a product that is both Canadian and “Green” - not us!  Our kids love these notebooks because they are as much art as they are functional notebooks.  We love the inspiration that is tucked inside each front cover (you’ll find everything from quotes to mini bios on notebook designers), the weight of the paper, and most of all, that we are supporting our own economy and the environment.  — Peter & Katie G.

I am impressed with the quality and design of this set of notebooks.  The small notebook with the quote from Ghandi on it, “Be the change you wish to see in the world” sums up what Pistachio is all about.  Good for them for taking the lead on earth friendly products that appeal to kids (and parents) of all ages! — Lori & Cam N.
