Project summary
The company mixes these ingredients into a paste, which it injects and bakes into a mould that can take the desired shape and form required for a wide range of products, including electronic goods, cosmetics and food. The custom packaging is recyclable with paper or compostable, as it breaks down naturally.
To support PaperFoam’s international expansion, we provided a €1.08 million loan guarantee through the Dutch Trade and Investment Fund (DTIF) we manage on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The guarantee was for a Rabobank loan that the company used to set up its factory in Czechia, for which it purchased 24 production machines.
Project impact
Reducing transport carbon emissions
Using PaperFoam's sustainable packaging, which is significantly more lightweight than conventional ones, clients can reduce transport carbon emissions by up to 75%.
Low-carbon production
The company's production uses minimal energy and water instead of the resource-intensive production of other packaging, resulting in a 60% to 90% lower carbon footprint.
