Can paper packaging be airtight? Of course, yes. That is the claim made by the Swedish company Billerud, which introduced the new heat-sealable packaging paper ConFlex HeatSeal.

Chinese company YUTOECO has unveiled its latest development, FluoZero™, a PFAS-free grease-proof coating technology for molded paper food packaging. What's so interesting about it, you ask? Let's find out more.

What is the difference between paint and sauce? No, there are, of course, a huge number of differences, but if you look at the consistency globally, then there is practically nothing.

Personally, we first heard about a paper bottle back in 2021. And we immediately told you about it. At that time, this direction was just beginning to develop, but it was already quite promising. Over the past almost four years, several large companies working in this direction have achieved good results. However, they have not yet been able to achieve complete liberation of the bottle from plastic.

We have already written about paper developments by Mondi more than once. This time they also pleased us with something interesting. In cooperation with Proquimia, they released dishwasher capsules packed in a paper bag.

Sometimes our managers hear the phrase “Why are yours so expensive? I could buy two packaging machines from those guys for the same money!” And I don’t even want to explain for a long time why we don’t want to sell “such” equipment.

These are sachet-type bags that are immediately thrown away after use. The ratio of product volumes to packaging in this case is not about ecology at all. But it turns out that not everything is hopeless here.
