Saa Paper

The History of Saa Paper

Over 600 years ago in the mountains of Northeastern Burma and bordering Thailand the Karen Hill-Tribe people found a remarkable bark that naturally peeled from the trunk of the Mulberry tree. Over the years Saa Paper making developed without destroying or cutting down trees.

Today, Saa Paper is often a bi-product of the silk making process. Silk Worms will only eat Mulberry leaves. The bark is peeled often from these same trees to make pulp. The Mulberry leaves and bark will grow back, naturally resuppling the raw material resources for two important traditional Thai industries.
