Sustainable alternative to plastic

The bio-based and biodegradable Sulapac materials can replace
conventional plastics in endless applications. They are circular by design, and safe for people and the planet; yet they meet the quality standards by the world’s most prestigious luxury brands.

Safe for people and the planet

The bio-based and biodegradable Sulapac materials leave no permanent microplastics or toxic load behind. Their carbon footprint is low.

Circular by design

Sulapac materials are made with recycled content and side stream raw materials. They are industrially compostable and suitable for chemical recycling.

Easy to adopt

Sulapac materials can be used with existing plastic converting machinery, enabling a practical and resource efficient transition towards a cleaner future.

Towards the circular future

Our goal is to use only recycled content and side stream raw materials by 2025. Read more about our ambitious sustainability agenda here.

SAFE FOR PEOPLE AND PLANET

The product is not considered harmful to aquatic organisms nor to cause long-term adverse effects in the environment.4

LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT

Based on eco-design, climate conscious raw materials and manufacturing.5

1) USDA Bio-based certification in progress. 2) Biodegradation of 48%–59% in 280 days in the marine environment (30C)(ASTM D6691). Tested according to ASTM 5511 (accelerated biodegradation in the landfill, 37C): 68% relative biodegradation in 160 days reached for Sulapac Universal. 3) Our wood originates from certified forests. We always follow our strict Policy for Sustainable Sourcing. 4) Ecotoxicity and threshold values for heavy metals tested according to EN 13432. All raw materials comply with the food contact requirements of the EU legislation. 5) 0,7kg CO2eq/kg for Sulapac Universal compared to 1,7 for polypropylene (Cradle-to-gate LCA screening performed by an independent third-party consultancy).
