Mondi receives Hungaropack award

Mondi has been awarded a Hungaropack award for its paper-based FlexiBag, which is made from renewable paper and features a plastic barrier and airtight construction to ensure the protection of the bag’s contents.

The bag was used by a German pet food producer, Interquell, who had been looking to increase the sustainability of its bags. The packaging was created as part of Mondi’s EcoSolutions approach, which involves it working heavily with a customer to develop sustainable bags and packages.

“We are honoured that this award acknowledges Mondi’s drive to deliver packaging that is sustainable by design,” said Sandor Kardos, Managing Director Mondi Békéscsaba.

“It is a testament to our EcoSolutions approach that puts our customers’ unique needs and environmental objectives at the heart of every project. Our paper-based FlexiBag is a direct result of this and a great example of impactful innovation as its adoption contributes to a better world.”

The Hungaropack Awards are conferred annually by the Hungarian Association of Packaging and Materials Handling in recognition of packaging technology advancements and design. Mondi’s packaging was appreciated by the awarding jury for its potential to reduce plastic waste across a variety of industries and sectors.
