Paptic enters hygiene packaging market

Paptic, a high-growth company manufacturing wood fiber-based packaging materials, is stepping into the hygiene and feminine care packaging sector with a groundbreaking, wood fiber-based material designed to meet the industry’s growing demand for sustainable packaging to replace plastics. This innovative material is easily recyclable with paper and cardboard and delivers a soft and pleasant user experience.

“We have developed a material that not only enhances sustainability but also elevates functional performance,” says Alexandros Skouras, hygiene segment director at Paptic. “This solution seamlessly replaces traditional plastics, offering a renewable and recyclable alternative. It’s perfectly suited for personal care products, where comfort is a key priority.”

The Single-Use Plastic Directive (SUP) recognizes paper as a sustainable alternative to plastics, and Paptic materials fall within this classification. Made from renewable wood fibers, Paptic is fully recyclable and compatible with the circular economy. It can be processed on existing plastic converting lines, enabling manufacturers to make an effortless transition towards more sustainable packaging solutions. The lightweight, heat-sealable material is available with FSC certification, underscoring Paptic’s commitment to sustainability and responsible sourcing.

“Our R&D efforts focus on developing recyclable wood fiber-based materials that help our customers reduce their dependence on plastics, while optimizing resource use both in materials and to enhance circularity, keeping materials in material use as many life cycles as possible,” adds Alexandros Skouras. In Europe, the collection of fiber-based packaging materials is well above 84% already now, and all the fiber goes to new fiber-based solutions as a raw material.
