Poldi Papier: Funny greeting cards with regional flair conquer Währing!
In Vienna, a fresh entrepreneurial idea is attracting everyone's attention: “Poldi Papier”, a creative company run by the Jakubowskis, has specialized in designing greetings and postcards that stand out for their regionality and quality. Founded by Sandra and Christoph Jakubowski, the idea came about in 2020 after their first daughter was born. The graphic designer Sandra and her husband Christoph, who previously worked in financial management, put a lot of effort into developing a product line that not only brings joy, but is also sustainable. MyDistrict reports on the couple's first steps and the challenges they overcame.
The design of “Poldi Papier” relies on eye-catching motifs, including a popular cucumber motif, which is available in various formats. It is printed on Italian Tintoretto paper with a special hammer effect. Recycled material is used for the envelopes, half of which comes from old jeans or products such as coffee and olive oil. This environmentally conscious procurement is reflected in the entire company strategy.
Sustainability in focus
The Jakubowskis are not alone in their desire to offer products that are high quality and environmentally friendly at the same time. The RAAB Publishing highlights that environmental protection is an important issue in the printing industry. All of their cards are produced climate-neutrally and with FSC-certified paper. This ensures that wood harvesting is carried out in an ecologically and socially responsible manner. The regional production locations also help to minimize CO2 emissions through short transport routes.
In addition, “Poldi Papier” customers would have the opportunity to personalize their cards, resulting in a unique experience. Incidentally, part of the proceeds from sales go to charitable projects, such as “Doctors Without Borders”, which gives the company an additional social impact.
A place to discover
If you would like to experience the Jakubowskis' products for yourself, you can find them in the “Schlauraum” at Kutschkergasse 44 or online www.poldipapier.com. Personal pickup and shopping in the haptic space offer a great opportunity to take a look at the different designs and formats. “Poldi Papier” is not only an example of how you can run a successful company with passion and a good knack for quality, but also proves to be a pioneer in the combination of creativity and sustainability.
Additional collaborations with regional partners, such as the dog collar manufacturer “Fräulein Lotti” and the Viennese patisserie “Crème de la Crème”, strengthen the local network and underline the community spirit that has characterized the company since its founding.
In a world where digital communication often takes over, “Poldi Papier” offers a welcome opportunity to rebuild personal relationships. Whether for special occasions or just because – a handwritten card from “Poldi Papier” always brings joy.
