Heritage & History
Decomposition Book was created by Michael Roger Inc, a company that set out to reimagine the classic composition notebook as a fully sustainable product made entirely in the United States. The standard composition notebook — a staple of American school life since the 19th century — had largely moved to offshore manufacturing with virgin paper. Decomposition Book reversed both trends: 100% post-consumer waste recycled paper, printed in the USA with soy-based inks, covered in designs celebrating natural subjects — wildlife, plants, landscapes.
The distinctive covers — hundreds of unique illustrated designs from owls and tide pools to succulents and mushrooms — turned a utilitarian school supply into something people choose deliberately rather than just grabbing whatever's on the shelf. Writers, students, artists, and journalers seek out Decomposition Books specifically because they want a notebook that reflects their values.
Made in the USA
Every Decomposition Book is printed and manufactured in the United States using paper made from 100% post-consumer waste — paper that was already used, collected, and recycled rather than virgin wood pulp. Soy-based inks, which are derived from a renewable American crop, replace petroleum-based printing inks. The result is a notebook that carries genuine environmental credentials without certification theater.
The college-ruled composition notebooks measure 9.75 x 7.5 inches with 160 pages — the standard composition format with sustainable credentials. Spiral-bound versions are available for students who need lay-flat books. Mini sizes work for pocket notes and to-do lists. The product line includes hundreds of cover designs across both the classic square composition format and the coilbound format. Amazon listings confirm Made in USA on every product. For anyone who buys notebooks regularly and wants American manufacturing and recycled paper, Decomposition Book is the standard.
