DMF is an eco-friendly, nearly waterless process that moulds cellulose fibres into various three-dimensional packaging products. 

The partnership will leverage PulPac’s proprietary technology alongside ANDRITZ’s experience in turnkey pulp mills, web-forming processes, and converting and recycling technologies.  

ANDRITZ will now offer complete DMF lines, enhancing its portfolio of sustainable solutions.  

These lines are designed to produce recyclable and biodegradable products such as coffee lids and food trays, which are crucial in reducing single-use plastic consumption.

ANDRITZ Nonwoven & Textile division manager Andreas Lukas said: “This partnership with PulPac enables us to engineer economically viable and resource-saving solutions for Dry Molded Fiber products that contribute to the reduction of single-use plastics. This is perfectly in line with our commitment to driving the green transition.”

We look forward to building on our partnership and continuing to scale sustainable packaging solutions together.”
