Paper-based Diaper Pack Makes Recycling Easy

“Consumers are looking for more sustainable packaging that is kinder to the planet without compromising on the integrity of the product. With the EcoWicketBag, consumers can be confident of product quality and packaging sustainability,” says Werner Van Ingelgem, R&D Director at Drylock Technologies.

A key advantage of using paper-based solutions, according to Drylock, is the commonly known recyclability of paper—consumers are highly likely to know how to dispose of it correctly. The EcoWicketBag can be placed in existing paper streams, even in countries with the strictest recycling regulations, thereby supporting the circular economy. An EcoWicketBag made out of fully compostable materials is also available.

Plus, the EcoWicketBag fits with Drylock Technologies’ existing plant processes, meaning it is the first paper wicket bag range that can be filled and sealed on existing machines.
