PulPac, a fibre-based packaging products manufacturer, has announced a collaboration with PA Consulting and Optima to develop bespoke machinery for advanced Dry Molded Fiber (DMF) applications.  

This partnership is intended to boost the industrial-scale production of sustainable solutions, including coffee capsules and blister packaging.  

By leveraging PulPac’s proprietary technology alongside PA Consulting’s product development expertise and Optima’s machine-building capabilities, the collaboration aims to meet the growing market demand for environmentally friendly alternatives. 

The collaboration is also poised to enhance the high-throughput production of DMF applications, aligning with PulPac’s and PA Consulting’s Blister Pack Collective and other initiatives.  

The newly developed machinery will enable brands to integrate cost-efficient, sustainable packaging solutions at scale, expanding the potential of DMF technology in the packaging industry. 

PulPac COO Viktor Börjesson said: “We have proven that Dry Molded Fiber can be used for making advanced products, but turning that potential into real-world impact requires scaling production to an industrial level.  

“Through this collaboration, we enable brands to adopt more sustainable practices at scale – making a tangible difference in reducing reliance on nonrenewable materials and promoting a circular economy.”  

Last week, PulPac and PA Consulting unveiled new DMF-based bottle caps, which are currently undergoing market testing with the Bottle Collective.
