PulPac and PA Consulting have launched a collective to bring together companies from the pharmaceutical, consumer health and FMCG sectors. The aim of the Blister Pack Collective is to bring the world's first dry moulded fibre tablet pack onto the market.
In view of the 100,000 tonnes of plastic that are produced worldwide every year for pharmaceutical packaging, the PulPac and PA Consulting (PA) has set up a Blister Pack Collective to promote the PulPac technology to create a recyclable and sustainable fibre alternative with minimal use of plastic. to conventional, non-recyclable PVC (polyvinyl chloride) blister packs.
Dry Molded Fiber uses renewable pulp and cellulose resources to produce cost-effective, high-performance fibre-based packaging. The proprietary manufacturing process consumes less CO2 and almost no water to produce highly versatile tablet assemblies that match the design and tablet count of commercial PVC and represent a comparable, scalable solution for pharmaceutical and healthcare companies.
"PulPac's dry moulded fibre technology combined with the ingenious PA team has made it possible to translate the shapes, functions and properties of current plastic blister packaging into cellulose - a major step forward for the industry in the search for sustainable packaging options."
Philip FawcusDry Moulded Fibre Technical Lead and expert for sustainable materials at PA Consulting
"The innovative tablet blisters designed by the PA team demonstrate a viable fibre-based concept for a circular cellulose solution that can solve a global problem. By taking advantage of our Dry Molded Fibre technology - instead of single-use PVC - this packaging would circulate in paper streams and still be functional, scalable and most importantly affordable. Industry players who want to champion sustainable change in the packaging industry are welcome to join the collective to support this transition to sustainability with rapid adoption and global impact."
Sanna Fager, Commercial Manager at PulPac
"It takes innovation and collaboration to tackle the climate crisis, and our partnership with PulPac is an example of this. By utilising our combined strengths, we have found a solution to tackle one of the huge plastic waste problems in industries that rely on tablet blisters. Now we need the industry's support to accelerate the development of this ingenious solution and help eliminate tonnes of problematic plastic waste from the planet."
