IMPACT
The packaging industry accounts for over 40% of global plastic usage, polluting the ocean, harming wildlife, and contributing to climate change. The excessive and convenient use of plastic packaging has led to the need for new sustainable practices. Keeping the planet healthy for future generations requires responsible resource use today.
​
Pulp packaging relies on sustainable materials, such as trees from responsibly managed forests and recycled paper. Compared to traditional packaging materials like plastic, foam, and polystyrene, these materials are renewable. Pulp molded fiber packaging is customizable and can be tailored to the shape and size of your products, ensuring a snug fit. This minimizes wasted space within the packaging, allowing you to pack more items efficiently. Pulp packaging is also designed to be stackable and nestable. This means that containers or trays can fit into one another, reducing the overall volume of packaging materials and significantly saving space on pallets or in containers. Molded pulp packaging is also designed to minimize dead space, as it conforms closely to the shape of the product. Additionally, with the lightweight of pulp molded fiber, the overall weight of your shipment is lower, reducing your carbon footprint and leading to other eco-friendly benefits.
When discarded, molded fibre packaging products break down naturally over time, turning into nature itself once again. The cycle is reborn, achieving a circular economy.
PLASTIC REGULATION
People and governments worldwide are starting to recognize the environmental problems of plastic waste. With the increasing attention, over 60 nations have introduced bans and levies on plastic packaging and single-use waste. The United Nations is also taking action and aims to have a treaty signed by 2024, covering the entire plastic lifecycle. It will emphasize sustainable product and material design, reuse, remanufacturing, and recycling to minimize waste generation.
​
Several significant plastic regulations have come into effect, including:
​
United States - California, New York, and hundreds of municipalities in the U.S. ban or fine the use of plastic in some way.
Canada - Canada has banned the manufacture and importation of single-use plastics (2022).
Europe - Specific single-use plastics cannot be placed on the markets of the EU Member States (2021).
UK - The Environmental Protection Regulations (2021) and the UK Packaging Tax.
