MONDI has announced it is investing over €16 million in its Krapkowice plant in Poland in response to demand for sustainable packaging from the e-commerce sector.
The plant is dedicated to the production of Mondi’s MailerBAGs, described as ‘durable, lightweight as well as puncture and tear-resistant’.
Available in a range of sizes, the bags are said to be ‘ideal’ for delivery and returns, while ‘excellent printability’ ensures brands can communicate messages to consumers.
This latest investment will more than double Mondi’s MailerBAG production capacity for 2023 in Poland and includes a new production line.
The bags are made from Mondi’s kraft paper and produced and converted in-house. They are designed to be recycled in conventional paper recycling streams across Europe.
Thierry De-Vleminck, MailerBAG director, Mondi paper bags, said, “The growing e-commerce market needs a strong supply of quality packaging that has a real focus on sustainability, which is what we deliver – a bespoke solution for every customer, every time.”
Bogdan Rozio, regional manager central and eastern Europe and MD Poland, Mondi paper bags, added, “We’re delighted to be investing further in the e-commerce industry and in our Krapkowice plant. It contributes to our MAP2030 commitment to make all our packaging solutions reusable, recyclable or compostable by 2025, and allows us to respond to the market demand in this key region.”
