What is moulded fibre?

Pulping
kraft board with water to
form a slurry.

Moulding
shapes within moulds through various techniques.

Drying
finalise the product’s shape
and strength.
Moulded fibre, or moulded pulp, is an eco-friendly packaging material derived from recycled paper and cardboard. Created by blending these fibres with water and additives to form a versatile slurry, it’s shaped using moulds and dried to a rigid form.
This sustainable solution is 100% recyclable, biodegradable and compostable, offering superior shock absorption. Ideal for fragile items like electronics, ceramics and fresh produce, it minimises transit damage, reduces waste and enhances product protection.

What packaging materials can moulded fibre replace?
Moulded fibre packaging is an excellent replacement for various materials due to its eco-friendly and protective qualities. It can effectively replace:
Moulded fibre provides comparable cushioning and protection while being fully biodegradable and compostable, reducing environmental impact and waste. Styrofoam takes over 500 years to decompose, while moulded fibre decomposes within a few months.
Moulded fibre is an eco-friendly alternative that offers similar protective qualities, is made from recycled materials and is fully recyclable and compostable. Plastic clamshells contribute to the 8 million tonnes of plastic entering the oceans annually, whereas moulded fibre reduces this burden.
Moulded fibre is free from harmful chemicals, biodegradable and made from recycled content, making it a safer and more environmentally friendly option. PVC can release toxic chemicals into the environment; moulded fibre avoids these hazards.
Moulded fibre inserts provide similar custom-fit protection for products are made from sustainable materials, and can be easily recycled or composted. Plastic inserts contribute to the 300 million tonnes of plastic waste produced annually, while moulded fibre reduces this waste.
Moulded fibre offers effective shock absorption and cushioning for fragile items, serving as a biodegradable and eco-friendly alternative to foam packaging. Foam packaging can take up to 500 years to decompose, while moulded fibre decomposes within months.
Moulded fibre reduces plastic waste, is made from sustainable resources and offers similar protective qualities while being biodegradable and fully recyclable. Plastic packaging constitutes 40% of plastic waste, while moulded fibre provides a sustainable alternative.
