Consumers want to adjust their behavior for the benefit of the environment, inspiring new and “green” consumer habits; something that can be felt amongst businesses that have to adapt and rethink their production, distribution and logistics.

This is done partly to take responsibility for the environment as a company, and partly to meet consumer demand.

This is a task that is easier said than done. However, this is precisely what the unique material Paptic is capable of.

What is Paptic?

Paptic is the result of a special type of technology and manufacturing process, which creates a revolutionary material with versatile usage possibilities. The material consists of wood-based cellulose fibres.

Paptic is one of the market’s most creditable contributions for a high-performance alternative to many of the packaging solutions found on the market today.

The unique thing about Paptic is that it combines some of the best qualities found in plastics, paper and textiles; the high print-quality of paper, the durability of plastic and the softness and versatility of fabric.

Upon request, the material can even be produced with FSC® certified paper, which means that the fibres come from trees felled in sustainably run forests and other controlled sources.

Paptic is a high-performing material

Paptic is a 100% plastic-free and biodegradable product that is high-performing on many levels. The material still has great qualities such as optimal durability, flexibility and formability.

Paptic build their principles on five fundamental pillars:

#1 Renewable Raw Materials

Paptic consists of wood-based cellulose fibres. The material is also available FSC® certified, which verifies that the paper comes from sustainable forestry and other controlled sources.

#2 Resource efficient

Secondly, Paptic is developed using a resource-efficient technique that saves both water and energy.

#3 Reusable

Due to the flexibility and durability of the material, consumers will be much more likely to reuse Paptic packaging – again and again. In addition, the high-quality look and feel will also extend the use value and service life of the packaging.

#4 Biodegradable

The material is 100% biodegradable.

#5 Recyclable

Paptic can be circulated and recycled along with cardboard and paper.

In other words: Paptic is a material that can replace your fabric, paper or plastic packaging without compromising on performance, aesthetics or functionality.

Let’s take a closer look at the various possible uses for the material.

In an age, where demands for more sustainable initiatives is rising astronomically among environmentally-aware consumers, the packaging industry is no exception.

According to a study from the Danish Ministry of Environment and Food, 48% of Danish consumers are greatly or to some extent affected by a brand/product’s environmental profile. This is a trend confirmed in another study by the research institute Retail Institute Scandinavia, showing that as many as 83% of the young “Generation Z” (born before 2001) attribute a great deal of importance to ethically sound and sustainable profiles.
