Egyptian Innovation Turns Cotton Waste into Archival Paper

Egypt has successfully developed locally made cotton paper used for restoring ancient manuscripts and rare books, with the aim of preserving cultural heritage. This paper is made from long-staple cotton waste and is more durable and protective for manuscripts than commercial paper, which deteriorates over time. Additionally, its manufacturing costs are up to 83% lower compared to imports. This achievement comes in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted supply chains, encouraging researchers to rely on local production for more sustainable and higher-quality restoration efforts.
