The sustainable dust-tight Sealed Paper Packaging

BillerudKorsnäs continues in its quest to solve the packaging challenges of the future.  This is intended to enable brand owners to reduce their environmental footprints and enhance customer experiences by choosing paper packaging over plastic. This revolutionary solution is perfect for dry foods and keeps both shelves and the environment clean.

Along with our Axello® ZAP paper, which has been developed specifically to be strong and resilient enough for use on the Syntegon PME ZAP, the first VFFS solution with ZAP-Module, and our expertise in packaging materials, the collaboration has formed the basis for this innovation.

Apart from being all paper and therefore renewable, recyclable, and biodegradable, the new Sealed Paper Packaging is also dust-tight and insect-proof.

This keeps food particles in and contamination out during transport and while on the shelf, thereby resulting in a cleaner environment and less food waste. The success of the product is based on the quality of the paper in combination with the technology to reliably seal the packaging.  

A recent LCA study confirmed that the Axello ZAP bag results in a 65% lower carbon footprint than a corresponding plastic bag (source: Life Cycle Assessment, Report U5052, IVL, 2015).
