Billerud has developed a recyclable, heat sealable paper designed to replace plastic in packaging applications with high demands for sealing performance and recyclability.
The company embeds sustainability in everything it does and when developing new high performing packaging materials, it knows it has a joint interest with
converters and brand owners to replace plastics with fossil free materials.
While ConFlex HeatSeal has already been successfully introduced in the bedding segment by a major Swedish furniture brand, its potential extends far beyond into further applications in industrial and hygiene packaging.
‘With ConFlex HeatSeal, we offer a commercially viable, heat sealable paper that supports businesses to transition away from plastic. It delivers strong sealing performance and recyclability within existing paper recovery systems and works within slightly modified converting processes where Billerud provides transition support. It is great to see how we live our purpose to make high performance packaging materials for a low carbon society through innovation,’ commented Robert Torstensson, vice president business area paper, Billerud.
With a lower carbon footprint ConFlex offers a high performance alternative for companies looking to replace plastic packaging while using their current machinery and maintaining efficiency.
