Papira® by Stora Enso - a fully bio-based and biodegradable foam

Papira® by Stora Enso is a fully bio-based and biodegradable foam that is completely recyclable in any paper stream. It is a rigid yet flexible foam that provides high protection against shock and offers a plastic-free alternative to polymeric foams such polyethylene (PE), polystyrene (EPS) and polyurethane (PU). Papira is designed for optimal protection of fragile, sensitive and high-value consumer goods such as electronics as well as industrial appliances. It can be fabricated by using different foam cutting techniques and laminated to achieve different structures.
