FAQs

What is moulded fibre?

Moulded fibre is a packaging material, manufactured using natural fibres.

Our product, Colourform, uses thermoformed technology which provides a high quality, luxury finish and can be used as a complete packaging solution.

What is thermoforming?

The process is based on the use of custom-made ‘moulds’ – made to create the exact shape of your bespoke design (right down to the fine details of texture and embossing).

In our process, coloured pulp flows into the mould – which is then carefully heated in stages. This results in a high quality, structured form.

Do you have standard moulded fibre products?

Our moulded fibre packaging is bespoke, allowing you to create unique, functional packaging that tells your brand story. Whatever you require, we can engineer bespoke moulded fibre to meet your application’s needs.  

Our portfolio covers a wide range of packaging applications including full secondary packaging solutions or component packaging such as inserts.
