The integration of this barrier solution with DMF manufacturing technology improves the environmental performance of on-the-go coffee when compared with plastic and wet-moulded fibre alternatives.  

This offering also provides a feasible alternative to reusable takeaway containers, as per the EU’s Single-Use Plastics and Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulations directives.  

The coffee lid is part of a range of standardised DMF applications that are now available. 

PulPac COO Viktor Börjesson said: “This easily implementable and scalable on-the-go alternative fits seamlessly into a modern lifestyle. And the coffee lid is just one example from the range of standardised Dry Molded Fiber applications available that align with the recent EU legislations for takeaway.”

This DMF technology, licensed by PulPac to packaging manufacturers, utilises minimal water and energy during production, compared with similar paper-based products. 

It also reduces carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions by up to 80% compared to other methods, according to the company. 

Consumers rated the lids highly for fit, convenience, usability, and tactile experience, PulPac stated, citing a recent market survey.

In July last year, PulPac signed a new license agreement with Matrix Pack, a European manufacturer of paper straws and biodegradable lids, for its DMF technology.
