With Protector Bag ExpandForm, Mondi has developed a paper bag solution with an expandable function for the secure roll packaging of mattresses. This allows plastic packaging to be replaced by a flexible and recyclable alternative.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Protector Bag ExpandForm is customisable and can be expanded to different sizes while holding the mattress securely. The packaging is made from kraft paper from Mondi<\/a> that is responsibly sourced, renewable and recyclable, contributing to a circular economy. The paper packaging is puncture-resistant and suitable for printing,<\/strong> so that brand manufacturers can personalise their deliveries with a high-quality finish. Unlike plastic, the paper layers are also breathable and can release gases that can easily evaporate with this new packaging.<\/p>

Megaflex Schaumstoff is a family-run manufacturer of flexible foams and finished mattresses and sleep products and is the first to protect its products with this new packaging. The close cooperation between Mondi, Megaflex Schaumstoff and the machine manufacturer FillMatic ensured a smooth and quick changeover from the current plastic solution, which was the first to use the new packaging. Ready for use with just a few adjustments to the packaging machines<\/strong> was. Looking to the future, the mattress manufacturer plans to replace its entire range of plastic roll packaging with paper by the end of 2023 by using Mondi's Protector Bag ExpandForm.<\/p>

Plastic roll packaging can expand by up to 200 per cent during transport, taking up space and possibly deforming the outer cardboard packaging. One advantage of the Protector Bag ExpandForm is therefore that it is dimensionally stable<\/strong> - This saves shipping and storage costs.<\/p>

\u201eConsumers are actively looking for packaging that is responsibly sourced and easy to recycle. This new solution fulfils both criteria: It is easier to open and dispose of compared to the large and avoidable plastic roll packaging that was previously used. Protector Bag ExpandForm does not require secondary packaging to protect the product<\/strong> and remains stable throughout the entire delivery route. We are proud to be the first to bring this innovative solution to the market.\u201c<\/p>

Karsten L\u00f6hr, Managing Director, Megaflex Foam, says: \u201eThe Protector Bag ExpandForm fits perfectly with our mattresses and the plastic savings are considerable - over 18 tonnes per year<\/strong>! The paper packaging is appreciated by our customers and is a big step forward in our sustainability journey. Thanks to our good partnership with Mondi, we can use this more sustainable packaging that contributes positively to our sustainability commitments.\u201c<\/p>
