Let’s get off the beaten track, the grass never grows on the road where everyone passes
Today, in exclusivity, BBC CELLPACK Packaging is unveiling their new packaging development project. Are you ready for a green revolution?
To innovate, you have to leave your comfort zone, dare to see bigger and further; this is the key to success and entrepreneurship. The company BBC CELLPACK Packaging has been applying this way of thinking for several years now with their several innovations. In start-up mode, inter-service projects, mixing ideas they have developed innovative packaging solutions linked to sustainable development.
Their paper packaging range, CELLNat Crunchy, suitable for dry products, will have a brand new option. Today this product is available in FSC paper, and tomorrow the company will propose to their customer the possibility to have their product with… grass paper. Yes, grass!
This natural resource grows and regrows continuously. Grass is renewable by excellence. The meadows and fields around us bear witness to this throughout the year. So why not use it in the design packaging? This is the challenge that BBC CELLPACK Packaging want to take up today!
Healthy packaging for healthy products.
Grass paper is made from grass pellets and wood fibres. The combination of these two elements gives the paper a level of strength while combining renewable and environmentally friendly raw materials. Grass paper has important environmental benefits:
- Raw materials savings: Grass-based paper is an alternative to traditional paper and reduces the demand for wood. Grass waste, previously composted or burned, can now have a second life as it is converted into pellets to make paper.
- A quickly renewable raw material: Grass grows almost everywhere and can be harvested/mown several times a year. Therefore, grass can be classified as a fast renewable raw material.
Energy savings: The production of grass-based paper reduces CO2 emissions because of the short distances between the mown grass and the processing plants. It also uses up to 50% less water than traditional paper, according to the inventor of grass-based paper.
Now, BBC CELLPACK Packaging took part in the new adventure of grass-based paper packaging. Their teams are currently working on the development of this packaging with the aim of finding an ideal solution that combines grass-based paper, barrier properties, technical properties and recyclability. ➡️ If you want to be among the first to offer this green packaging to your customers, now is the time to contact BBC CELLPACK Packaging Teams : packaging@cellpack.com
