Origami is the Japanese art of paper folding.
The Japanese word origami is itself a compound of two smaller Japanese words: "ori", meaning to fold, and "kami", meaning paper. Although Origami is a Japanese word, origami first originated in China. Japanese origami began in the 6th Century when Buddhist monks introduced it to Japan.
Today origami is used a lot more than you would think. Design wise origami offers many package solutions currently in the marketplace. Origami provides strength, protects the product and often requires little or no glue.
