11 Nov 2019 --- In collaboration with its partner Mitsubishi HiTech Paper, Smurfit Kappa has created a new type of board-based, recyclable food-safe packaging. As the companies have noted a rising demand for sustainable packaging, this launch aligns with Smurfit Kappa’s ongoing “Better Planet Packaging” initiative, aimed at producing more sustainable packaging solutions. Earlier this year, the new board-based packaging solution was shortlisted as a finalist in both the sustainability and technology categories of the Swiss Packaging Awards.
