Summary

Move the use of internal packaging harmful to the environment such as polystyrene, chemical foam, polypropylene, etc. Using pulp molded instead of those chemicals in different branches of the manufacturing, agricultural and textile industry.

Innovation

GMPM seeks to improve a product that already exists (EPS, EPP and EPE) by another one that offers the same result (molded paper pulp), using easily available, economical and eco - friendly raw materials.

Eco-Packaging

Inspiration

Molded pulp is becoming a popular primary and secondary package because of its sustainable qualities.

The manufacture of molded pulp is improving, making it easier for companies to design more developed molded pulp packages.

The economic impact is even more attractive for the industry as it provides savings of 35% to 40% in the total costs of the packaging used. The level of cushioning to be similar or even greater than that provided by traditional packaging makes it a viable and reliable product, from a quality point of view.

Overall impact

  • 100% ecological process
  • More economic raw material
  • 100% raw material recycled
  • 100% recyclable and biodegradable products.
  • It can be used to protect any product in almost any industry
