PurposeFil™ lays the ground for purposeful e-commerce packaging

Ahlstrom’s PurposeFil™ Packaging Papers allow packaging engineers and brand owners to reach sustainability targets while meeting critical performance criteria required for retail and e-commerce packaging.

As a global leader in fiber-based materials, we are committed to supporting a sustainable transition to a world less dependent on plastic through the development of innovative fiber-based materials, answering to a rising demand for sustainable packaging solutions for retail and e-commerce.

With lower packaging weight, reduced waste, and high package integrity and safety – fiber-based materials present opportunities for more sustainable packaging. Our fiber is sourced from responsible and legal sources, and all PurposeFil™ products qualify for Chain-of-Custody Forestry Credits and Certification.

The versatile product line can be applied for a wide variety of purposes within e-commerce and retail settings. Insulated or protected packaging, high-stretch cushioning papers, transparent pouches, packaging for single-use consumer goods, retail shopping bags, and garment wraps are some of the possible applications of PurposeFil™.
