Mondi, the global leader in packaging and paper, recently expanded its portfolio with the launch of a new paper EcoWicketBag for Drylock Technologie's baby diaper ranges. The new debut will help bring sustainability to the global baby hygiene market with paper-based packaging in place of the traditional single-use plastic diaper packaging.
Many considerations went into creating the EcoWicketBag including having a strong shelf-appeal, being durable enough to travel, and protecting the product, all while using renewable resources to reduce the product's CO2 footprint. At the product's end-of-life cycle, the EcoWicketBag can be placed in existing paper stream recycling centers to support a circular economy, and because the product is clearly made of paper, consumers are more likely to properly recycle the packing.
“We work closely with our clients using our customer-centric EcoSolutions approach to create packaging that is fit for purpose – using paper where possible, plastic when useful. With Drylock Technologies it was key to reduce the amount of plastic used, meet our customer’s sustainability targets and protect the products for consumers. By liaising closely and asking the right questions from the outset, we have been able to deliver on all of the above,” says Claudio Fedalto, chief operating officer Paper Bags, Mondi.
