By GlobalDataFuture Materials Sweden founder Morgan Svensson stated: “We are excited to partner with PulPac and contribute to the transformation of the packaging industry.
“Our combined strengths create a strong foundation for innovation and growth. As consumers demand better alternatives, sustainability and circularity are no longer just ethical choices – they have become powerful competitive advantages. Innovative and responsibly produced fibre-based packaging gives brands the opportunity to lead rather than follow.”
PulPac chief commercial officer Sanna Fager added: “Dry moulded fibre opens up enormous opportunities far beyond food packaging, where we’ve already seen strong traction. There are countless segments waiting to be explored, and partnerships like this, built on expertise and the right mindset to move the needle, allow us to push those boundaries responsibly and at scale.”
In July 2025, SIG partnered PulPac to develop paper-based closures for its aseptic cartons.
This initiative was part of SIG’s broader objective to increase the paper content in its packaging to 90% by 2030.
In the same month, PulPac secured a €20m ($23.2m) loan from the European Investment Bank to support its fight against plastic waste.
