Sustainability: Challenges, Strategies, Digitalization, and Solutions for the Tissue Industry
The fact that nearly half of plastics consumption is directly related to packaging has spurred research into alternatives that make sense for tissue manufacturers, converters, and the markets they serve. Combining renewable resources with biodegradability, bioplastics are the frontrunner for sustainable packaging — as evidenced by the rapid growth in the global packaging market, which is projected to reach nearly $16 billion by 2027.
Bioplastics are a logical choice, but not a perfect one. The materials are expensive and aren’t currently available on an industrial scale — both of which are impediments for OEMs. To overcome these obstacles, biodegradable plastics are being blended with other eco-friendly materials and ground-breaking technologies so tissue converters and manufacturers can readily access and use sustainable packaging solutions.
Fabio Perini and partnering companies developed 100% Vincotte OK compost-certified bio-paper, 100% recyclable and biodegradable paper, and the technologies necessary for OEMs to run these materials on existing tissue converting and packaging equipment. The insights gained led to further eco-friendly innovations: adhesive-free tissue converting to eliminate the environmental hazards of industrial glues, and smart machine digitalization that leverages data to help tissue industry OEMs cut energy waste, optimize OEE, and incorporate sustainability practices throughout production.
