Its aim is to industrialise a recyclable, fast and cost-effective dry moulded fibre bottle process.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dry moulded fibre is intended to be a practical alternative to disposable and standard plastic bottles and can be used for different products. The PA teams for mechanical engineering, design, automation and materials science have already developed the first functioning prototypes together with PulPac. Several brand partners have already joined the collective, <strong>to continue the development and scaling of fibre bottles until 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Dry Molded Fiber uses renewable pulp and cellulose resources to produce cost-effective, high-performance fibre-based packaging. <strong>The patented manufacturing process consumes less CO2 than plastic and conventional wet moulding processes.<\/strong> Almost no water is used during production, resulting in a versatile container shape. The fibre bottles are suitable for water, dairy products, non-carbonated soft drinks, cleaning products, skin and hair care products and much more. Customised shapes, sizes and decoration options also make it possible to express the value of a brand well.<\/p><div class=\"packa-in-post-alle\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"packa-2885423213\"><div id=\"packa-3631096267\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/newsletter\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"PJ Self-promotion English 03\"><!--noptimize--><img src=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png 840w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-18x5.png 18w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-332x83.png 332w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-664x166.png 664w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-688x172.png 688w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" width=\"840\" height=\"210\"  style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" \/><!--\/noptimize--><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<blockquote><p>\u201eWe are very excited to announce the Bottle Collective. Together with leading global consumer brand partners, we can accelerate the development of the world's first bottle made from dry moulded fibre. This will make the most of our renewable resources while having a positive impact on reducing today's single-use plastic litter. We have a prototype and a working process. Now we are ready for the next phase - proving that our dry moulded fibre bottles are capable of being produced at the speed, volume and cost required to meet the challenges of this global industry.\u201c<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tony Perrotta,<\/strong> PulPac Partnership Lead at PA Consulting<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_75708\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-75708\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-75708 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Pulpac-230215-177-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"PulPac fibre bottle\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Pulpac-230215-177-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Pulpac-230215-177-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Pulpac-230215-177-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Pulpac-230215-177-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Pulpac-230215-177-2-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Pulpac-230215-177-2-1320x880.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Pulpac-230215-177-2.jpg 2250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-75708\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The fibre bottles are suitable for water, dairy products, non-carbonated soft drinks, but also for cleaning agents, skin and hair care products.
