Abstract

This study aims to assess the techno-economic feasibility of producing eco-friendly paper from bamboo as a medium for child-friendly school campaigns. A simulation method was used to analyze financial parameters, including cumulative net present value (CNPV), internal rate of return (IRR), return on investment (ROI), payback period (PBP), and break-even point (BEP). Results showed excellent findings. Production is feasible and competitive, with a payback period occurring between four to five years. Bamboo, due to its abundance, affordability, and high fiber content, serves as an environmentally sustainable alternative to wood. Profitability remains stable under various scenarios, and the projected twenty-year operation indicates strong long-term returns. This production model aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by reducing emissions and supporting safe, healthy, and inclusive learning environments. The findings provide a practical reference for policymakers and educators aiming to integrate sustainability into educational infrastructure and media. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.
