Does it take more energy to produce recycled paper than using a virgin paper? Studies confirm that paper production consumes 31% less energy than virgin paper production and so we believe that, when using a paper unit dose container completely recyclable, we could give a significant contribution to the conservation of natural forests and fresh water releasing and, at the same time, to the reduction of greenhouse gases.

UNIFILL offers the possibility of having a unit-dose package made of eco-friendly material (paper-based) with low environmental impact.

Paper is a natural material widely used in the packaging industry that, in the last decades, has been progressively overcome by plastic materials. Now humanity is rightly concerned about the ecological balance of tomorrow and decided to slow down the use of plastics to improve the use and the re-use of cellulose fibre-based packaging materials.

We are aware that paper is fully recyclable and thermoforming this material means giving a huge contribution to environmental respect and responsibility. UNIFILL is now going in this direction and it is ready to play a leading role also in paper solutions.

UNIFILL is pushing a lot the low-fossil-fuel economy (LFFE) believing that it is possible having a most profitable economy also using low carbon power sources that could bring substantial benefits also in developed industries.

In 2015 the UNIFILL board approved an investment plan and gave the green light for the installation of solar panels in its facilities of Bomporto. Now a relevant part of the total electric consumptions is coming from a renewable source.

Less plastic means not something missing but, on the contrary, it means something more and, in particular, more is referred to industrial development, sustainability, circular economy and environmental respect.

It is understood that the effects of human behaviour on the planet's ecosystem have become very significant in the last few decades and therefore, enter the new paper era, is surely a worldwide business opportunity that UNIFILL is approaching since 2017.
