Koehler Paper will be shining a spotlight on the circular economy at this year’s Fachpack trade fair in Nuremberg on September 24–26, 2024. Using its “NexFlex®” flexible packaging paper and “greenium” recycling paper as examples, the company will be demonstrating how it is already applying circular economy principles for the paper packaging sector at stand 310 in Hall 3A. In doing so, Koehler Paper is making a vital contribution to conserving resources. One priority when developing “NexFlex®” flexible packaging paper is to make sure that it is recyclable and offers outstanding product protection. The paper can then be recycled as part of a standard paper recycling process or reused. This is also certified by the Papiertechnische Stiftung (PTS, Paper Technology Foundation) and environmental service provider Interzero. “With our flexible packaging paper for food and non-food applications, we offer future-proof products that are made from renewable raw materials and are well suited for recycling after use,” explains Christoph Wachter, Director of Flexible Packaging Paper at Koehler Paper.
