Mondi has collaborated with Dobis, a company committed to producing functional, safe, and eco-conscious packaging, to increase efficiency in the production and reduce paper grammages of their shopping bags for the fashion, fast food and retail industries.
Together, the two companies have launched Eco/Vantage Light Fashion shopping bags, which is made from 100% recycled fibers, and are the perfect choice for fashion and gift bags. EcoVantage Kraft Pro, with a recycled content of 20 percent and ISEGA food approval, is for fast food and grocery applications. Eco/Vantage Kraft Classic, with a recycled content of 50 percent, combines strength and printability for food and fashion packaging, perfect for Dobis’s needs.
Watch: In Pursuit of Lesser Water Footprint
Dobis has leveraged Mondi’s expertise to optimize its paper grades and successfully reduce paper weight without sacrificing the strength and print quality required for premium shopping bags.
By transitioning to lighter weight papers, Dobis has not only been able to reduce material consumption, but also improve print quality and achieve clearer results with less ink, supporting the company’s sustainability goals.
Gerhard Pachler, Regional Sales Director Speciality Kraft Paper at Mondi, said, ‘‘Over the past three years, Dobis has relied on Mondi’s broad portfolio of paper products, ranging from 100% fresh fibre to papers with recycled content. The collaboration has helped us to do extensive research to test and select the ideal papers for different applications so that Dobis can meet its high quality and efficiency standards.’’
