Pack a Better Package with Sealed Air Paper Solutions

No other paper manufacturer can serve the packaging industry like Sealed Air.

 

Why Paper Packaging?

Paper packaging materials are known to be biodegradable, recyclable, and renewable, making paper an environmentally friendly choice that aligns with growing global interest in sustainable packaging options.

Most consumers appreciate seeing paper packaging arrive at their doorstep due to perceptions of it being more natural, organic, or visually appealing, with the added benefit of being easy and convenient to recycle.

Sealed Air manufactures two primary types of paper for packaging – pre-made kraft mailers and a range of kraft paper available in rolls or folded into dispensing cartons. For larger packaging operations where efficiency and ergonomics become more important, we also offer a range of dispensing and forming equipment that can generate a variety of cushion types based on protective and logistical needs.

Advantages of Paper Packaging

Sealed Air is the only paper manufacturer in the U.S. with two mills dedicated to making paper just for our own mailers and packaging solutions.

We control the entire manufacturing supply chain from raw materials to finished product, which allows us to optimize costs at each stage of production and keep supply steady.

We also set and control our own quality standards and manage the production process with a commitment to reduce lead times, streamline operations, and use sustainable manufacturing practices.

When our R&D and engineering teams pursue innovation in paper materials or production, they do so with a packaging mindset – and that means that everything from our fiber to the machines they run on to the performance they provide is developed in sync, so our customers get the benefit of systems that work together seamlessly, consistently, and dependably for many years.

Advantages of Paper Packaging

 

As more consumers seek ways to become environmentally responsible, paper is an excellent choice for companies that ship goods to boost sustainability practices. Paper packaging has many valuable properties with recyclability topping the list. When used as void fill, paper is a recyclable replacement for foam packing peanuts. When used as a cushioning agent, paper can sometimes provide blocking and bracing protection just as well as other materials that are not recyclable.
