Paper sleeve to wrap fizzy drink

Coca-Cola HBC Austria has worked together with Mondi to create a paper sleeve packaging solution for its 1.5 L PET multi-packs of the Coca-Cola, Fanta, Sprite and Mezzo Mix brands sold in Austria.
The Hug-IT sleeve is designed to replace existing plastic shrink wrap, using paper made from responsibly sourced fibres as a more sustainable solution.
Made of Mondi’s Advantage SpringPack Plus paper, the sleeve has high tensile strength and good stretchability so it can wrap six bottles tightly and keep them together and upright during transportation.
Advantage SpringPack Plus is 100% kraft paper made from wood that is FSC Certified as being made with responsibly sourced fibres, and recyclable in existing paper recycling streams.
The solution has taken three years to complete, from conception through to planning, trialling and getting the product onto shelf. Its development involved a number of Mondi’s divisions and cross-segment collaboration, making the most of the company’s expertise in paper packing and converting, and creating more sustainable solutions.
The sleeves are engineered on automated machinery provided by Krones.
