Fiber-based consumer packaging leader Graphic Packaging International (Graphic Packaging) has announced the launch of an innovation in coated recycled paperboard (CRB): PaceSetter Rainier™, named after Mount Rainier, known for its pristine white snow-capped summit. The new paperboard offers many of the characteristics of solid bleached sulfate (SBS) in combination with recycled content. With brightness and whiteness that exceeds that of traditional CRB, it can compete directly with SBS and folding box board (FBB).

Created using Mondi’s recyclable FunctionalBarrier Paper, the new packaging was developed for Veetee’s rice range, on shelf since April.

Providing a direct replacement to plastic, the packaging has fit for purpose barrier properties to protect the products while supporting Veetee’s goals to reduce plastic.

Mondi provided a full in-house solution for Veetee – sourcing certified renewable material, producing the certified kraft paper, add barrier functionality and printing it before delivering the final paper-based reels to Veetee for conversion and filling.
