Fiberdom completes industrial pilot trials of plastic-free wood fiber packaging material

Fiberdom has completed industrial pilot trials of its plastic-free Duranova material, made from FSC-certified wood pulp or paperboard. According to the company's chief technology officer, the successful demonstration of continuous production capability addresses previous trade-offs between performance and scalability in plastic-free packaging materials.

Demonstrating that a plastic-free fiber material can run in standard reel-to-reel production environments changes that equation and broadens what is realistically possible at industrial scale for converters, board producers, and brand owners working to meet new regulatory and brand requirements.
