Metsä Board Americas, a distributor of paperboards, is partnering with Homes with Hope, a non-profit organization dedicated to preventing and ending homelessness in local communities.
The partnership began by combining Metsä Board's paperboard with the manufacturing capabilities of local converter Kari-Out. Metsä Board Americas donated rolls of MetsäBoard Prime FBB EB, a dispersion-coated barrier paperboard with medium barrier properties against grease and moisture that is both recyclable and compostable. Kari-Out produced takeout boxes free of charge, replacing Styrofoam, previously used by Homes with Hope to serve food.
