The Finnish startup Sulapac is producing a sustainable, low carbon footprint packaging material made for the cosmetics industry. It is 100 percent biodegradable, made from wood and natural binders, and is water, oxygen, and oil resistant.

Sulapac has recently won the Green Alley Award 2017, a European startup prize for businesses working towards a circular economy. The team is now looking for wider applications for their innovative packaging system.
