In search of true tree-free substrates, manufacturers have innovated with agricultural fibers that are rapidly renewable resources. Emerald Tree-Free paperboard is made from bagasse, a byproduct of sugarcane. It’s durable enough for folding cartons while also presenting coating options that speak to your brand’s sustainability efforts and add a touch of luxury.
Emerald Brand Tree-Free paperboard is:
Perfect for: Food packaging, folding cartons, marketing collateral, and luxury packaging
Unilustre® (from Unifoil) is a repulpable, film- and plastic-free, metallized substrate that performs like paper. The material is excellent for embossing/debossing. With no plasticizers, it also retains tamper-evident and glueability qualities similar to traditional paperboard while having excellent scoring.
Unilustre® is:
Perfect for: Folding cartons, cosmetics, personal care, spirits, retail, and signage
