The paper can be fully recycled in existing recycling systems, having scored 18 out of 20 points in testing conducted by the Confederation of European Paper Industries (CEPI). According to Billerud, ConFlex HeatSeal has already been used by a major Swedish furniture brand, and it is now anticipated to expand into industrial and hygiene packaging applications.
Robert Torstensson, Vice President, Business Area-Paper, Billerud, said, “With ConFlex HeatSeal, we offer a commercially viable, heat-sealable paper that supports businesses to transition away from plastic. It delivers strong sealing performance and recyclability within existing paper recovery systems and works within slightly modified converting processes where Billerud provides transition support. It’s great to see how we live our purpose to make high performance packaging materials for a low carbon society through innovation.’’
