UK-based ThermoFibre new license holder
PulPac extends its licensee network with UK-based ThermoFibre, an industry leader with in-depth knowledge and expertise in molded pulp manufacturing and bringing fiber products to market.
ThermoFibre partners with PulPac – brings Dry Molded Fiber products to market
The shift from single-use plastics continues as ThermoFibre joins the PulPac eco-system as the next licensee to expand its offer with Dry Molded Fiber products. In connection with becoming a licensee, ThermoFibre ordered the PulPac Modula, a Dry Molded Fiber production line that will be installed in the company’s facility in Lincolnshire, UK, next year. Primary first applications will be high-volume products such as food trays, lids, cutlery and the like.
Dry Molded Fiber, invented and owned by PulPac, is a fiber forming technology that can replace single-use plastic with sustainable, cost-efficient fiber-based alternatives. To accelerate the shift, PulPac has together with partners developed the PulPac Modula, a standardized machine platform, now rolling out to licensees, including ThermoFibre, establishing a new standard for sustainable fiber-based packaging.
“We are driven by assisting companies shifting to packaging that is better for our planet.”
