PulPac, the global leader in Dry Molded Fiber technology, has joined forces with Future Materials Sweden, a rising Swedish start-up specializing in material innovation, to advance the shift from plastics to sustainable, fiber-based packaging solutions.
The strategic partnership merges PulPac’s patented Dry Molded Fiber process with Future Materials Sweden’s deep expertise in plastic injection molding and tool manufacturing. Together, the two companies aim to develop next-generation packaging concepts for emerging market segments — expanding the reach of fiber-based alternatives far beyond their current use cases.
“Our combined strengths create a strong foundation for innovation and growth,” said Morgan Svensson, Founder of Future Materials Sweden. “As consumers demand better alternatives, sustainability and circularity are no longer just ethical choices – they have become powerful competitive advantages. Innovative and responsibly produced fiber-based packaging gives brands the opportunity to lead rather than follow.”
PulPac’s Dry Molded Fiber technology enables the production of high-performance packaging using renewable materials while consuming up to 90% less water and energy compared to traditional fiber-forming methods. The process delivers durable, cost-efficient, and customizable packaging solutions that can replace single-use plastics at industrial scale.
“Dry Molded Fiber opens up enormous opportunities far beyond food packaging, where we’ve already seen strong traction,” said Sanna Fager, Chief Commercial Officer at PulPac. “There are countless segments waiting to be explored, and partnerships like this, built on expertise and the right mindset to move the needle, allow us to push those boundaries responsibly and at scale.”
With their shared ambition for innovation and sustainability, PulPac and Future Materials Sweden are positioning themselves at the forefront of a rapidly evolving packaging industry — one that is redefining what “responsible materials” mean in a circular economy.
PulPac AB is a Swedish company that has developed and commercialised a technology it calls Dry Molded Fiber (DMF) — a process that forms cellulose-based fibres (typically from wood pulp) into three-dimensional packaging and single-use items via a nearly waterless and high-speed route.
Future Materials Sweden AB is a Swedish company that focuses on circular materials—specifically, designing and manufacturing products and packaging with sustainable materials and approaches.
