Understanding PaperWave® Certifications
We are often asked about the certifications of PaperWave®—and rightly so. Businesses and consumers alike want reassurance that their packaging choices align with sustainability goals. Here’s how PaperWave® stands out:
✅ FSC®-Certified (C162510) – PaperWave® carries the certification of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC®), ensuring that the paper used originates from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits.
✅ ClimatePartner-Certified – Through our partnership with ClimatePartner, the CO₂ footprint of PaperWave® is calculated, improved, and offset, demonstrating our commitment to a lower carbon footprint and climate neutrality.
✅ PTS-Certified Recyclable – The Paper Technology Foundation (PTS) in Munich has certified that PaperWave® is fully recyclable and can be repulped without affecting the quality of recycled paper.
✅ RESY Mark & 22PAP Sorting-Aid Symbol – These marks confirm that PaperWave® is designed for easy sorting and disposal, ensuring it can be placed in the waste paper bin without confusion.
✅ Compostable & Water-Degradable – With an ultra-thin, starch-based sealing layer, PaperWave® remains compostable and even degrades in water if mistakenly discarded, making it a truly eco-conscious choice.
Why PaperWave® is the Future of Sustainable Packaging
Unlike traditional plastic air cushions, PaperWave® is made from more than 80% renewable resources and incorporates cutting-edge recycling technology. The paper and sealing layers separate naturally during the repulping process, enabling seamless recycling with regular waste paper or compostable waste.
With today’s focus on plastic-free packaging, PaperWave® provides a powerful and ecologically advantageous solution. It offers businesses a way to reduce their environmental footprint without compromising the protection of their goods.
Easy Disposal for Consumers
Simplicity is key when it comes to sustainable packaging disposal. Consumers can confidently dispose of PaperWave® in their waste paper bin, knowing it will be efficiently recycled. This eliminates uncertainty and ensures the material returns to the circular economy rather than contributing to landfill waste.
