Dart Container Corporation, a leading foodservice packaging manufacturer, and PulPac announce a strategic partnership. Supported by PulPac’s North American sales agent Seismic Solutions, Dart has become a PulPac licensee and is installing the first Dry Molded Fiber production line of its kind in North America: the PulPac Scala.

PulPac’s pioneering Dry Molded Fiber manufacturing process uses significantly less water and energy than traditional fiber forming. The dry mold process lowers the CO2 production footprint by up to 80% and is up to 10 times faster than conventional fiber forming, making it an ideal solution for the evolving needs of the packaging industry.

“Our investment in Dry Molded Fiber technology aligns with our ongoing commitment to innovation and sustainability,” explained Michael Bradley, Dart’s Senior Vice President of Fiber Development. “Increasing our fiber production capabilities will enable Dart to offer our customers an even broader range of sustainable packaging options, including US-manufactured supply.”

The partnership expands Dart's already diverse product portfolio while leveraging PulPac’s innovative technology to meet growing market demands for more sustainable packaging solutions.

PulPac is the home of Dry Molded Fiber – a pioneer in packaging solutions, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible to do with cellulosic fibers.
