Mondi has unveiled a new fully recyclable Protective Mailer made entirely of paper, addressing the growing demand for eco-friendly eCommerce packaging solutions.

Developed in collaboration with Amazon, these innovative mailers offer a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic bubble wrap. The design features:

• A unique combination of strong, lightweight kraft paper and open-flute material
• Customizable open fluting to ensure product protection during transit

Nedim Nisic, Mondi Group eCommerce Director, highlighted the product's alignment with consumer preferences: "In our recent eCommerce report, we found that 88% of consumers value protective packaging as their top need, and 58% expect nearly all parcels to be delivered in compostable or recyclable packaging."Thais Blumer, European Head of Sustainable Packaging for Amazon, added, "Achieving both low weight and maximum protection with a 100% recyclable paper envelope was not an easy task, but these envelopes are easy to pack, simple for customers to recycle at home, and enable damage-free deliveries."

Mondi's new Protective Mailers offer significant advantages for eCommerce businesses. Available in standard and customizable sizes with adjustable height, they optimize material usage and can reduce shipping costs. These versatile mailers accommodate various products, from small electronics to books and fashion accessories. Their good printability allows for effective branding and distinctive designs.

By offering a plastic-free alternative that doesn't compromise on protection, Mondi is helping businesses meet both environmental goals and customer expectations.
