Paper and fiber packaging is gaining popularity as sustainable and cost-efficient alternatives to fossil-based packaging and single-use plastics, as it is most conveniently recycled and recyclable.  Moving forward with the complexity of demand requirement, the paper packaging industry has taken a leap, through partnerships, R&D and etc, with performance paper packaging solution coupled with high functional barrier properties and heat sealability, suitable for both food and non-food applications.

Food-contact compliant and safety is key priority for paperboard and fiber packaging.  Ensuring sustainability, functionality (heat sealability and etc) and recyclability of the barrier paper packaging are increasingly important requirements too, and this is set to disrupt the entire value chain for the next few years.

And naturally in the food-contact segment, the wishlist for barrier paper packaging go beyond oil and grease proof, but also the ability to improve shelf-life and freshness. This eventual solution has to full recyclable, compostable and biodegradable.

Circular economy of packaging aims for full recyclability of packaging materials disposed, and ease of existing paper waste recycling stream.
