"We will never compromise with user experience. FibreForm® is a unique material and this collaboration is another application where we can help brand owners on their journey towards sustainable packaging", says
"Over the last few years we have seen an increasing demand for fibre-based packaging solutions including tube applications. This tube solution developed together with Aisa is utilizing the unique characteristics of the Fibreform material and is able to meet the high expectations from brand owners - from plastic reduction, to excellent functionality and exceptional branding possibilities."
Tubes made of FibreForm® can be used in different segments as for example toothpaste and cosmetics. FibreForm is renewable biodegradable, cold-formable and it requires less energy in production than plastics. One of the great advantages of the collaboration between BillerudKorsnäs and Aisa is the smooth manufacturing process. It is possible to replace the plastic with FibreForm in Aisa's machines without them having to be rebuilt.
" FibreForm® adds luxurious features to the already wide range of tube decorations and our clients can now offer higher end solutions to product marketers looking to differentiate from mass market packaging. By using FibreForm® from Billerudkorsnäs, Aisa is now able to replace up to 70% of plastic in the functional shoulder component and together with the tube sleeve made of over 85% of paper, this hybrid shoulder contributes to a package that now is composed of more than 80% paper", says
