Packages
From Wood Chips and Biopolymers

Sulapac

Sulapac biodegradable packaging is based on a mixture of wood chips and bio-polymer. The material is increasingly used in the cosmetics industry. Sulapac is produced by means of industrial composting, which does not require the use of any water or chemicals and is therefore a particularly environmentally friendly recycling process. With this innovation, Sulapac shows that the nutrients of compost not only serve agriculture, but also the plastic-free packaging industry. The fact that the material can also be used for food packaging is demonstrated by the company’s collaboration with the chocolate manufacturer Fazer.
