Pulpac
🏭 Sweden
What we like about Pulpac: They offer high-speed manufacturing that’s comparable with the speed of plastic production. They’re open to exploring R&D on new products like paper bottles.

-
There may be variations in smoothness and thickness, but molded paper pulp looks and feels similar to paper egg cartons.
-
Pulpac’s molded paper is made from paper or pulp that’s broken up into fibers. Molded paper can work as a bio-based alternative to plastic that relies on renewable resources instead of fossil fuels.
Molded pulp trays take the biggest sustainability hit when it comes to energy requirements, because they typically require high heat to dry in manufacturing. Pulpac has a more unique manufacturing process, so it’s unclear if they also require high heat.
For more transparent sourcing, suppliers may source paper that has an FSC certification. The paper and forest industry created FSC certifications to set standards like stricter restrictions on clear cuts and pesticide use.
-
The best afterlife for most paper products — from collateral to boxes — is recycling. Most paper fibers can be recycled more than five times. Paper with tape or stickers can still be recycled, because non-paper materials are sifted out in the recycling process.
-
Pulpac can manufacture a wide variety of structures to include embossing or debossing. Print and coatings are also an option.
Printed designs will match the finish of the paper. For a shiny finish, you’ll need to inquire about added coatings. Coatings may also be necessary if your packaging needs extra water resistance.
