Kiilto, a manufacturer of chemical industry products and Woodly, a Finnish company that has developed a novel wood-based plastic, are working together to develop Woodly packages for domestic cleaning products manufactured by Kiilto. The goal is to launch the first novel packages by the end of 2021.
Kiilto's goal is for 70% of packaging to be made of recycled or renewable materials or to be reusable by 2025. The cellulose used by Woodly as its primary material comes from responsibly managed and FSC-certified forests. Wood-based plastic can be used for a variety of packaging applications and produced by the same methods as conventional fossil-based plastic. After use, Woodly packages can be recycled as plastic.
Development work on novel packaging is underway.
