BillerudKorsnäs has expanded its FibreForm paper format to target a wider range of applications.

The product can be used in the manufacture of reusable carrier bags, paper cup sleeves and paper plates. According to BillerudKorsnäs, FibreForm has been supplemented with unbleached, brown paper.

Peter Sundvall, sales director, sack and bag at BillerudKorsnäs, said: “FibreForm allows for deeper embossing than regular paper. This offers brand owners the chance to create unique 3D effects, a memorable tactile experience and, ultimately, increase their brand loyalty and awareness.”

According to BillerudKorsnäs, the bags can carry loads of up to 21kg, while FibreForm can be “used in existing thermoforming and press-forming lines to produce sustainable paper plates without investing in new machinery”.
