From POOP to POOPOOPAPER™Here's the scoop about our poop: elephants eat large amounts of fibrous vegetation every day. They also have relatively inefficient digestive systems which means that when they poo (it's not gross since they don't eat meat, fish, cheese and other stinky foods) it's filled with lots of intact fiber. Well, this fiber makes for great pulp for paper making. That's where we come in! We collect and clean the poo, make a pulp mixture and craft raw sheets and rolls of paper which we use to make all sorts of POOPOOPAPER™ stationery and gift products. Go figure! With all the concerns these days about deforestation and the need to recycle, we believe our products are a fantastic example of sustainability and recycling since we are utilizing an abundant waste material and repurposing it to make some-thing new and functional. The fact that POOPOOPAPER™ is totally fun and memorable goes a long way too by inspiring innovative, creative and sustainable practices and solutions to our shared environmental challenges

Look Who’s talking...POOPOOPAPER™ has been featured in dozens of major print, televition and digital media publications over

the last several years. These are just a few of them but by no means endorsements of our products.

Artisan Made and More Than Fair Trade

Our production facility in Thailand recently had a thorough social audit completed according to Social Accountability International SA8000 standards. We rated in the 80th percentile. We are incredibly proud of this and think that this is important for all our customers to know.

The SA8000 social audit was developed to help ensure that workers of the world are treated according to basic human rights princi-ples. "SA" stands for social accountability and is run by Social Accountability International (SAI) which was founded in 1997. It's a global standard-setting non-profit organization dedicated to improving workplaces and communities and is based on the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Convention on the Rights of The Child and various International Labor Organization (ILO) conventions. SA8000 covers the following areas of accountability: Child labor; Forced labor; Workplace safety and health; Freedom of Association and Right to Collective Bargaining; Discrimination; Discipline; Working hours; Remuneration; Management systems for Human Resources. as of December 31, 2008, 1,067,703 workers in 66 countries in 67 industrial sectors were employed at 1874 factories, stores and farms certified to SA8000 standards.

SAI has established one of the world's preeminent social standards - SA8000 standard for decent work, a tool for implementing interna-tional labor standards - that has improved the lives of over one million workers. The SA8000 standard leverages the power of business-es and consumers to purchase products made from workplaces that enrich, not denigrate, the livelihoods of people.

Fabrication artisanale et équitableNos installations en Thaïlande ont passé avec succès un audit social correspondant aux normes SA8000 (Standards internationaux de responsabilité sociétale). Nous avons atteint le 80ème percentile. Nous en sommes terriblement fiers, et heureux de pouvoir le dire à tous nos clients.

La norme SA8000 a été développée pour garantir que tous les travailleurs sont traités correctement au regard des droits humains fondamentaux. "SA" signifie "Social Accountability" (Responsabilité sociétale). La norme a été élaborée par Social Accountability International (SAI) en 1997. SAI est une organisation non-gouvernementale de standardisation qui se consacre à l'amélioration des lieux de travail et des communautés qui les entourent, selon les principes de la Déclaration universelle des droits humains des Nations-unies, la Convention des droits des enfants et plusieurs conventions de l'OIT (Organisation internationale du travail). SA8000 vérifie plusieurs critères de responsabilité: travail des enfants, travail forcé, santé et sécurité sur le lieu de travail, liberté d'association et de négociation collective, discrimination, discipline, temps de travail, rémunération et système de gestion des ressources humaines. Depuis le 31 décembre 2008, 1.067.703 travailleurs dans 66 pays et dans 67 secteurs industriels sont employés dans 1874 ateliers, magasins et exploitations agricoles certifiés aux normes SA8000.

SAI a établi l'une des normes sociales les plus fondamentales: la norme SA8000 pour le travail décent. Cet outil qui sert à faire appliquer les normes internationales en matière de travail a contribué à l'amélioration du niveau de vie de plus d'un million de travail-leurs. La norme SA8000 permet aux entreprises et aux particuliers d'acheter des produits fabriqués sur des lieux de travail qui embellis-sent la vie des travailleurs.

Ambachtelijke en rechtvaardige productieOnze installaties in Thailand zijn geslaagd voor een sociale audit overeenstemend met de SA8000 norm (internationale standaard voor maatschappelijke verantwoordelijkheid). We zijn erin geslaagd het 80ste percentiel te bereiken. We zijn er ontzettend trots op en blij dat we het al onze klanten kunnen vertellen.

De norm SA8000 werd ontwikkeld om ervoor te zorgen dat alle werknemers eerlijk worden behandeld ten aanzien van fundamentele mensenrechten. "SA" staat voor "Social Accountability" (sociale verantwoordelijkheid). De norm werd in 1997 door Sociaal Accountabil-ity Internationaal (SAI) uitgewerkt. SAI is een niet-gouvernementele organisatie die zich inzet voor de verbetering van werkplekken en gemeenschappen daar omheen, volgens de principes van de universele Verklaring van de mensenrechten van de Verenigde Naties, de Overeenkomst over de rechten van kinderen en meerdere overeenkomsten van de IAO (Internationale Arbeidsorganisatie). SA8000 controleert verschillende verantwoordelijkheidscriteria: kinderarbeid, dwangarbeid, gezondheid en veiligheid op de arbeidsplaats, de vrijheid van vereniging en collectieve onderhandelingen, discriminatie, discipline, werktijden, loon en beleidssysteem van het personeel. Sinds 31 december 2008 werden 1.067.703 werknemers in 66 landen, verspreid over 67 sectoren, tewerkgesteld in 1874 SA8000-gecertificeerde werkplaatsen, winkels en boerderijen.

SAI heeft een van de meest fundamentele sociale normen opgesteld: SA8000 voor fatsoenlijke werkomstandigheden. Deze tool, die er voor dient om de internationale normen inzake werkzaamheden af te dwingen, heeft bijgedragen tot de verbetering van de levens-standaard van meer dan een miljoen werknemers. De norm SA8000 maakt het voor ondernemingen en particulieren mogelijk om producten te kopen die op arbeidsplaatsen worden vervaardigd die het leven van de werknemers verbeteren.
