Foodservice packaging manufacturer Dart Container<\/a> has entered into a strategic partnership with PulPac, developer of Dry Molded Fiber (DMF) technology, to bring this innovative production method to the North American market.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Supported by PulPac\u2019s North American sales agent Seismic Solutions, Dart becomes a PulPac licensee and is installing the first PulPac Scala production line in the region.\u00a0<\/p>\n

PulPac\u2019s DMF manufacturing process uses significantly less water and energy than traditional fibre-forming methods.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The process not only reduces the carbon dioxide production footprint by up to 80% but is also up to ten times faster, offering an efficient and sustainable solution for packaging needs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dart fibre development senior vice-president Michael Bradley said: \u201cOur investment in Dry Molded Fiber technology aligns with our ongoing commitment to innovation and sustainability.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIncreasing our fibre production capabilities will enable Dart to offer our customers an even broader range of sustainable packaging options, including US-manufactured supply.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The collaboration with PulPac allows Dart to expand its product portfolio while meeting the increasing demand for sustainable packaging solutions.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

PulPac CCO Sanna Fager said: \u201cWe are extremely proud to welcome Dart Container as a licensee.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cDart\u2019s stellar reputation and commitment to innovation make them an ideal partner, and their investment in Dry Moulded Fiber is a strong endorsement of the value and potential of this technology.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

In May this year, PulPac announced a partnership with packaging prints and barrier solutions provider OptiPack.\u00a0<\/p>\n
