UPM Specialty Materials, Michelman, and BOBST have joined forces to develop two validated paper-based packaging concepts for brands navigating the EU packaging rules, such as the Single-Use Plastics Directive (SUPD). Through strong collaboration, the three companies have built ready-to-implement structures that deliver strong barrier performance and heat sealability over a wide sealing window.
Michelman announces the introduction of two new bio-based, plastic-free coatings, Nuvita® Life 4002 & Nuvita® Life 4605 - designed to enable dual end-of-life outcomes, supporting compatibility with existing recycling streams and options for compostability.
Michelman is making donations to over 100 non-profits in the Americas, Europe, and Asia in honor of its 75th anniversary, reflecting a legacy of giving back.
