CALIMA Culture

The pre-Colombian CALIMA culture began in the Cauca Valley region, where the sugarcane grows all year round. After squeezing the sweet juices from the sugarcane, the remaining fibers left as a by-product are recycled to CALIMA Paper.

The CALIMA culture lived here between 1600 BC and 100 AD, and they mastered goldsmithing and ceramics art.
