Ranpak has introduced GrasiKraft<\/a>, an innovative paper-based void fill that combines grass fibres with recycled paper to meet the rising demand for sustainable packaging solutions.<\/p>\n

Partnering with Creapaper<\/a>, Ranpak has successfully made grass paper a mainstream product, marking a world-first in the industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cGrasiKraft paper represents the output of a significant amount of testing and research to determine a suitable alternative fibre source that could be used in Ranpak\u2019s paper products,\u201d said David Murgio, Ranpak\u2019s Chief Sustainability Officer. \u201cDiversifying our fibre sources in a sustainable manner is good for business and the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n

GrasiKraft integrates natural grass fibres for durability while showcasing the unique, speckled look of its grass-based composition, an aesthetic feature that appeals to brands aiming to signal eco-friendly values.<\/p>\n

A step forward in sustainable sourcing<\/h2>\n

The grass fibres used in GrasiKraft come from renewable sources like the margins of European agricultural lands, which can be harvested multiple times per year, making it a highly sustainable choice.<\/p>\n

Grass also consumes less water in the manufacturing process, reducing its overall environmental footprint. These fibres have proven strong enough to meet the demands of Ranpak\u2019s FillPak converters, maintaining the performance expected of traditional kraft paper while incorporating a unique tactile element.<\/p>\n
