Pulp is made by combining water and recycled paper, most often card offcuts,
recycled newspaper or a combination of both and then moulding it using wet
pressing technology.
The moulded pulp is then heated to give it strength and rigidity.
Pulp gives new life to surplus waste paper, reducing the need for virgin paper.
Even more excitingly, our manufacturing partners operate a closed loop system that utilises all their own packaging waste in the production of the pulp.
WBC’s Pulpsafe is recyclable, compostable and biodegradable, and unlike many
products claiming these benefits, PulpSafe is accepted for recycling by all local councils without the need for specialist treatment.
If that wasn’t great news already, it biodegrades in just 6 months or less in any
household compost heap rather than a lot of “biodegradable” products that only
biodegrade in carefully controlled industrial composting systems.
