What we like about YFY Jupiter: N-pulp is their in-house molded pulp slurry sourced from straw waste. They also work with bamboo and other fibers. They have strong portfolio of work for the consumer electronics industry.
Paper Pulp Trays
-
YFY Jupiter’s N-Pulp is made from pulped straw. There may be variations in smoothness and thickness, but molded paper pulp looks and feels similar to paper egg cartons.
-
Paper is made from plants — a renewable resource. YFY Jupiter’s N-pulp is made from straw waste, which is great because they’ve found a use for material that would otherwise be discarded for compost.
Paper is lightweight in shipping and can be engineered for structural stability with flat pack shipping.
Molded pulp trays take the biggest sustainability hit when it comes to energy requirements, because they typically require high heat to dry in manufacturing.
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.
-
Molded paper trays may have multiple color options, but printing can be limited depending to the texture and of the surface. YFY Jupiter has soy ink printing capabilities. You can also add designs or branding within the mold of your tray for an emboss or deboss effect.
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.
