Why Is Moulded Pulp the Future of Sustainable Packaging?

In a world where the environment is at the top of everyone's mind, industries are going all out to discover sustainable alternatives to traditional packaging materials. Moulded pulp has led the way in this respect, offering eco-friendly solutions without compromising on functionality. Companies like Jishan Berhad are at the forefront, making revolutionary breakthroughs in moulded pulp packaging.

What is Moulded Pulp?

Moulded pulp or molded fiber is a recycled newsprint and/or paperboard packaging material. It's produced by employing water and fibre mixtures, moulded into the desired shape, and subsequently dried. The process results in strong, biodegradable packages that have a wide range of uses.​

Advantages of Moulded Pulp Packaging

• Sustainability: Being made of recycled material, moulded pulp is biodegradable and compostable, leaving a smaller environmental footprint.

  
  

• Versatility: It can be molded to various shapes and sizes, supporting various packaging needs.​

  
  

• Cost-Effective: The raw materials are economical, and the production process is energy-efficient, thereby saving costs.​

  
  

• Protection: Offers excellent cushioning quality, making it apt for cushioning delicate products while in transit.​
  

Jishan Berhad's commitment to sustainability is seen through their moulded pulp tray production based on recycled materials, following their zero-waste policy.
