Goodbye to single-use plastic

The article notes that 2023 was abundant with packaging innovations, including when it comes to one of the most ubiquitous packaging options of all: bottles.

One key initiative has been to reduce the use of single-use plastic bottles in food, drink, consumer health and Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industries. To accomplish this, PulPac has teamed up with PA Consulting Group to launch The Bottle Collective, which will use PulPac’s patented Dry Molded Fiber as an alternative to plastic bottle packaging.

PulPac and PA Consulting partner to launch the Bottle Collective

The manufacturing process for PulPac’s patented Dry Molded Fiber uses less CO2 than plastic and conventional wet molding options, and the process uses almost no water as well. Multiple leading brand partners have already joined the Bottle Collective to continue developing and scaling fiber bottles by 2025.

PulPac, a leading developer and provider of groundbreaking manufacturing technology for low-cost, high-performance fiber-based packaging and single-use products, has partnered with PA Consulting Group to launch a new initiative that will help minimize the use of single-use plastic bottles in food, drink, consumer health, and FMCG industries. Using PulPac’s patented Dry Molded Fiber, The Bottle Collective will create a fiber-based alternative to plastic bottle packaging that will help contribute to the circular economy. The manufacturing process uses less CO2 than plastic and conventional wet molding options, and almost no water is used in manufacturing, which creates a highly versatile container mold for consumer companies.
