Which Emerging Trends Are Transforming the Paper and Paperboard Packaging Market in 2025?
Major players in the paper and paperboard packaging industry are embracing inventive recyclable solutions like Tambrite Aqua+, an innovative recyclable food packaging solution, in response to heightened packaging demand. Recyclable food packaging comprises materials that can be conveniently repurposed post-use, thereby diminishing the environmental footprint. These materials typically originate from environmentally friendly and renewable resources, such as those derived from plants, and are engineered to be either recyclable at curbside or compostable. Stora Enso, a packaging materials firm hailing from Finland, introduced the Tambrite Aqua+ foldable box board solution in May 2023, for instance. It is crafted for packaging frozen, chilled, and dry foods, with the objective of decreasing reliance on fossil-based plastics. Its characteristics include a water-dispersion coating that lessens plastic usage and is free of fluorochemicals, and resists greasiness and dampness. It takes advantage of dispersion coating technology, a method that provides a water-based alternative readily integratable with paperboard surfaces for effective shielding. Also, this groundbreaking solution displays robustness against external moisture and grease, thus maintaining the safety and soundness of the packaged item.
