Wynn Petfood is now packing its entire product portfolio of premium pet food blends (that are mixed with water at home) and practical snacks for dogs 100% in paper.

While paper packaging in many ways is more naturally eco-friendly than plastic packaging, Sun Chemical is busy developing inks and coatings solutions to ensure that true recyclability is achieved as the ‘paperization’ trend gains steam.

The solution integrates Eastman’s biobased and compostable Solus performance additives with BioPBS polymer to form a thin coating on UPM’s compostable and recyclable barrier base papers.

All three structures have been tested for recyclability according to the PTS RH 021/97 Cat II method.

With this innovation, packaging producers can use the HEIDELBERG portfolio of flexographic machines to print-apply Solenis’ barrier coatings.

As part of Nestlé’s continuous efforts towards more sustainable packaging solutions, the company is launching paper-based innovations across major brands.

The new product, a wax-free twist-wrap made entirely from paper, prioritizes recyclability and supports the global shift toward sustainable products.

During the presentation, Branyon walked attendees through Sonoco’s journey to ensuring that EnviroFlex Paper was curbside recyclable, and the sustainability advantages paper presents over other plastic-based materials. 

JANUS® is an all-natural coating that creates a barrier to grease, water and oxygen when applied to paper for food packaging, like wrap paper, boxes, cups, utensils, K-cups, and straws.

Designed to meet the growing demand for eco-friendly packaging, EcoPro™ represents a significant advancement in recyclable packaging options as it does not contain plastic, film, or foil.
