Molded Fiber Wine Shippers

Molded Fiber Wine Shippers

Molded fiber wine shippers have become very popular in the wine industry of late, mainly because of their strong eco friendly packaging characteristics.

Molded pulp is made almost completely from post consumer recycled paper. The recycling process gives the pulp material an airy texture which enhances its cushioning capabilities. Wine manufacturers and wine retailers can often shift from molded foam products to molded pulp without sacrificing performance.

Cost is another factor which makes molded pulp wine shippers attractive. High density polyethylene and polyurethane foams tend to be high cost, and tooling charges for custom molds are extremely expensive.

The International Molded Fiber Association (IMFA) lists scores of reasons why molded fiber makes a great packaging solution. Here are a few of them:

  • Molded Fiber is tough and resilient
  • Molded Fiber products can be reused
  • Molded Fiber Packaging Products protect against shipping damage
  • Molded Fiber products are economical
  • Molded Fiber interior forms are the best value for shipping damage protection
