Mondi and Syntegon Partner on Recyclable Packaging

Recyclable, Paper-Based Packaging from Mondi and Syntegon Packaging and paper industry leader Mondi has formed a partnership with Syntegon, a manufacturer of processing and packaging machinery, to develop a recyclable paper packaging solution for dry foods using recycled fibres. The packaging uses Mondi's award-winning EcoVantage kraft paper, approved by ISEGA for all food packaging applications.

Mondi's commitment to research and development investment and collaboration with industry partners enables the company to expand its applications and meet growing consumer demand for paper-based packaging. Elisabeth Schwaiger, Head of Intellectual Property/Flexible Packaging and R&D at Mondi, said: "Through our close partnership with Syntegon, comprehensive technical expertise and paper knowledge, we can support our customers in making more sustainable choices. We offer packaging innovation that embraces resource efficiency, waste reduction and recycling through high paper recycling rates and the use of wood as a renewable material." Source
