Sustainable perfume packaging from PaperWise
The perfume industry imposes strict requirements on both the aesthetics and sustainability of its packaging. PaperWise offers a solution that not only meets rigorous cosmetic-packaging standards but also contributes to a more sustainable future. PaperWise perfume boxes are made from agricultural residues that the company transforms into high-quality paper and board. This process reduces the need for trees and gives valuable crop waste a second life. The result is packaging that is environmentally friendly as well as socially responsible.
PaperWise materials for perfume packaging
For perfume boxes, PaperWise uses two paper grades: PaperWise Natural and PaperWise Natural Coated 1 Side White. Both are ideal for producing luxury packaging that is visually appealing while meeting the expectations of today’s sustainability-minded consumer.
PaperWise Natural is an unbleached paper available in weights from 150 g to 295 g. Its natural appearance is perfect for packaging that needs a rugged, organic look, reinforcing an authentic and eco-conscious image for the product.
PaperWise Natural Coated 1 Side White is a white, single-side-coated grade offered in weights from 245 g to 342 g. The front-side coating provides a smoother finish, making it ideal for packaging that requires a premium feel. The white surface is often requested by cosmetics brands because it enhances the refinement and high-end quality of the product.
Both grades are recyclable and tree-free, meaning they originate not from felled trees but from agricultural waste such as leftover leaves and stems after harvest. Choosing crop residues as a raw material significantly reduces the carbon footprint of perfume packaging.
Environmentally friendly advantages of PaperWise
PaperWise stands out for its environmental impact, which is up to 47 % lower than paper made from trees. By using agricultural waste, PaperWise prevents valuable resources from being lost or burned. Closing this loop supports the circular economy, where waste becomes a raw material again.
Packaging made from PaperWise is fully compostable and meets the EN 13432 European standard for industrial composting. After use, the boxes can be composted without harming the environment—an enormous advantage over traditional packaging that is often hard to recycle.
Quality and sustainability in one
PaperWise delivers benefits not only in sustainability but also in quality. The material withstands the inks commonly used in the perfume industry, making it an excellent choice for printing luxury boxes. It accepts all ink types and guarantees a bright, durable result.
PaperWise paper and board also have a long shelf life. They comply with the ISO 9706 standard, meaning they can be archived for up to 100 years without losing quality—an important feature for companies aiming to make a lasting impression with their packaging.
