OUR VISION
Replacing Plastic with Fibre-based Barrier Packaging
MATERIAL CHANGE FOR GOOD
Barrier Packaging
Cellucomp manufactures Curran®, a patented bio-based technology platform that adds functional properties to pulp and other materials in order to replace plastics and PFA’s and other synthetic chemicals in a wide range of products, thus creating Material Change for Good.
Curran has a myriad of uses within the packaging industry, most of which are centric to applications requiring strength and barrier (examples include food, personal care, home care etc.). This leverages our advantages of strength and high barrier properties compared to incumbent technologies by:
Lowering CO2 (moving from solvent based to water based)
Replacing plastic
Reducing waste (recyclable)
Reducing substances of high concern (no Fluorochemicals – PFAS)
Improving barrier properties (oxygen, water, grease)
PROVIDING BRANDS WITH POWERFUL DIFFERENTIATION
An ideal solution comprised of fibre-based substrate and a water-based coating. Offering both PERFORMANCE (strength and barrier) and SUSTAINABILITY (recyclability, compostability and biodegradability)
Fibre-based Barrier Packaging
Revolutionary Technology
CelluComp has invented a proprietary process that is unique in allowing the properties of cellulose nanofibres (CNF) from vegetable waste streams to be fully utilised. Curran® fibres are strong, stiff and light; properties which not only unlock the ability to produce our first primary application – fibre-based barrier packaging – but which bring game-changing advantages to a wide range of other applications from industrial materials to food products, paints and coating, and more!
