About Us
We’re an Australian brand, making exquisite, unique, personalized wedding and event stationery, crafted from cotton, utilizing the most eco-conscious methods.
History
Kattoné was established in 2015, by Katie and Paul, based around an idea sketched on a napkin.
The initial six years were dedicated to building the business from a diminutive inner city Melbourne apartment. With the growth in demand for Kattoné’s creations, additional space became imperative, prompting a relocation to a townhouse.
After having trouble in securing a reliable source of quality paper, of the right size and texture, we decided to make our own. Overcoming a challenging learning curve, we perfected a unique and environmentally friendly way of making and drying paper.
The surge in worldwide demand for artisanal paper and occasion stationery led to a relocation, in 2024, to expanded facilities in the sunlit city of Perth, situated in Western Australia. Now sustainable solar energy, and pristine water sources are employed in the crafting of our paper, free from toxic substances, using pure cotton, while the warm Mediterranean climate facilitates natural sun-drying of the paper.
With the expansion of the business, we introduced new products and team members. Today, we craft our own luxurious wax and seals, exquisite ribbons, and an extensive selection of exclusive, texture-rich, handmade colored papers, exuding a captivating natural aesthetic.
Since 2024, we have attracted the attention of enterprises seeking eco-friendly solutions for their event stationery, a burgeoning trend.
Meet the Founder - Katie
Katie grew up in Eastern Europe. From humble beginnings, in a small village, she relocated to a house her parents built themselves in a small town. She always had a passion for design but that had to wait. Katie relocated to the capital, to study IT at university. On graduation with a master’s degree, she worked initially in the IT sector, before moving to Turkey and later Australia, after she met her husband, Paul.
Katie’s marriage of design flair and passion for creating exquisite handmade stationery is complemented by Paul’s business acumen. He manages the accounts and backroom operations, allowing Katie to focus solely on design and customer service.
