Mondi has announced the Spanish launch of its SolmixBag in collaboration with Cemex. SolmixBag is a one-ply paper bag made from 100% kraft paper that stores and transports dry cement, screed and coarse pre-mixes. It disintegrates during the mixing process, thereby eliminating dust and waste on the building site. The company states that the bag is resistant to punctures and dissolves when it comes in contact with water in the cement mixer, where the fiber packaging integrates with the cement.

SolmixBag runs on existing filling machines. According to the company, it provides the same strength and shelf-life as conventional paper bags in a range of sizes and is easy to carry and store.

Fabio Barbieri, sales director paper bags, Mondi says, “The product launch brings to life our MAP2030 goals by reducing waste so effectively, and also illustrates our collaborative approach. Working with a well-known and trusted supplier further endorses our product standards from a partner with recognized, genuine additional industry expertise.”
