Our Manufacturing Process
The Process
No matter the type of molded fiber, the process remains largely the same. Differences between types 1,2,3 and 4 mostly occurs at the final steps of the process. Have any questions about our manufacturing process? Reach out to info@pulpmouldedproducts.com and we'd be happy to answer any questions.
Post-Industrial Waste Paper
The process begins by collecting waste paper products such as
newspapers, magazines, boxes or other items originally destined for the landfill.
Mixed into a Slurry
These items are then put into a large "blender", and mixed with water to break them down into small fibers. This mixture is what is used to form the final product.
Formed into a Product
The product is then vacuum formed and dried in an oven. In some cases a secondary process is added where the product is pressed with heat and pressure. The final product is 100% compostable, and biodegradable, leaving you with a completely sustainable packaging solution!
