We are developing technologies that further reduce plastic in our products, increase the renewable content in barriers, as well as make barrier products easier to recycle.

Today, barrier coatings are already enabling the removal of vast amounts of plastic from supply chains. But our aim is to never stop innovating as we reduce the plastic in our products further, find bio-based polymers that enable companies and brands to decouple from fossil materials, and create new ways to simplify the recycling of these materials.
Our development work focuses on three key areas:
With our customers, partners and researchers, we will release more commercial products resulting from this work in 2021. So, watch this space!
How can we as consumers make truly sustainable packaging choices? Read here how different packaging materials work in circular economy.
Used paper cups are today largely an unused resource. Stora Enso has made trials which confirm that they could be recycled into new products like magazine paper or recycled board.
Our new Aqua barrier for paper cups and food service packaging is designed for effective recycling.
