    Lightweight Paper and Packaging

    Smarter Packaging Starts Here.

    Innovation in Paper and Packaging

    We believe better packaging starts with better paper. Thanks to our brand-new paper mill, we now produce high-quality lightweight paper that maintains outstanding performance for a wide range of applications. This innovation allows us to offer great packaging solutions without comprimise.

    Strength Without the Weight

    Up to 20 % Lighter with the Same Quality

    We manufacture a full range of recycled paper grades, including various testliner and medium grades as well as a kraftliner substitute. These papers allow us to design lighter boxes at the same strength – without the extra weight.

    Smarter Board Choices

    Single or Double Flute?

    Lightweight paper opens the door to smarter board choices. Instead of using thick single-wall boards, we can now opt for double-walled solutions that offer:

    • Improved printability for better visual appeal
    • Better haptic experience

    This means better performance and presentation—without added material.

    Understanding Lightweight Paper

    Any paper under 100 g/m² is considered lightweight. We produce brown recycled paper in various grades:

    • Testliner in different grades
    • Kraftliner substitute in different grades
    • Fluteliner

    A Smarter Path to Material Efficiency

    Sustainability is more than a trend – it's a responsibility. Our lightweight boxes are made predominantly from recycled fibers, reducing the need for virgin fiber. As part of our paper cycle, your packaging can be collected, recycled, and reborn.

    Added Values That Add Up

    Efficiency in the Lead

    Lighter packaging helps you save in multiple ways:

    It’s a smart step toward a more responsible and efficient future.

    Benefits of Lightweight Paper and Packaging

    Smarter Structure

    Better Performance with Double-Wall Boards

    Switching to double-walled board solutions improves both printability and visual appeal. Lightweight packaging enables better performance without increasing material thickness.

    Circular Economy

    Keeping Fibers in the Loop

    Using recovered paper fibers reduces the need for virgin fibers and helps keep valuable materials in circulation.

    Savings That Scale

    Lower Costs in Transport and Waste

    Lightweight packaging reduces transport weight and waste disposal fees – delivering a better value for your business.

    Paper machine among the top 5 in Europe

    Location Eilenburg

    The site in Germany has been part of the Model Group since August 2021. The conversion of our plant for the production of corrugated base paper has been successfully completed since August 2024.

     

    The highly productive manufacturing program includes the production of corrugating medium and testliner 3 from 70-120 g/sqm². The capacity of the paper machine is 600,000 tons per year with a working width of 9.40m.

     

    This means that the largest and widest paper machine in the Model Group is now available in Eilenburg.
