“Collaborating with Novapor is a natural fit for us. With 50 years of experience in developing innovative packaging, they consistently go the extra mile to solve their clients’ challenges. This curiosity and drive have been key to the success of our pilot project,” says Juulia Kuhlman, director of business development at Stora Enso Biofoams.

Novapor specializes in using water jet cutting machines to convert paper-based foam materials. For two years, the company has been collaborating with Stora Enso to refine the process of converting Papira “with surprisingly few setbacks.”

Thomas Søgaard, head at Novapor Nordic, adds: “Transitioning to wood fiber-based solutions is an important next step in packaging, and monomaterial packaging made entirely of cardboard and paper, rather than plastic combinations, is highly relevant for our client Københavns Møbelsnedkeri.”

Stora Enso and German packaging company Novapor have begun supplying a furniture manufacturer with Papira, a wood cellulose foam packaging material. According to Stora Enso, replacing conventional foams with this wood fiber-based alternative can lower CO2 emissions without compromising protective performance.
