Mondi, ATS-Tanner Launch Paper Band for Food Bundles and Multipacks

ATS-Tanner uses Mondi’s kraft paper Advantage MF SpringPack and converts it into a band by adding a functional barrier on both sides of the paper. The paper is then sealed using ultrasound, eradicating the need for any adhesive. This ensures that the products are secured with minimum packaging, reducing waste and delivering a cost-efficient solution. ATS-Tanner markets the coated bands under the brand name TruePaper.

The strength of Mondi’s kraft paper means it can hold weights of up to 20 kg- making the band ideal for fruit and vegetable bundles as well as multipacks of bottles and other consumer goods. The paper ensures excellent printing results meaning brand, product, return, and responsible waste management messaging can be communicated to the end user.

Mondi’s kraft paper used for the paper band is made from renewable, responsibly sourced, and certified materials. It is recyclable in existing paper recycling streams across Europe, even fulfilling Germany’s ratio of 95/5.

Carsten Breiter, International Key Account Manager Speciality Kraft Paper, Mondi stated: “By combining world-leading expertise in sustainable packaging with ATS-Tanner’s machinery and skills, we have together created a system that offers great product protection while reducing unnecessary plastic. This is the perfect example of strong collaboration producing a new solution that does just that.”
