adapa Group has been awarded the Pap’Award in the category “Circularity in Food Packaging” for its
solution PaperFlow(re) P-type. The award, presented by Pap’Argus and Etiq&Pack, recognises the
company’s ongoing commitment to advancing circular packaging solutions.
PaperFlow(re) P-type combines excellent performance with CEPI-certified recyclability, addressing
key requirements for circular packaging. The solution is designed for seamless runnability on existing
HFFS and VFFS lines, eliminating the need for additional investment or machine modifications. At the
same time, it ensures a strong on-shelf appearance by reducing bends and crease marks, supporting
both functionality and visual quality.
The award-winning product reflects adapa’s continuous innovation approach and close collaboration
with customers. PaperFlow(re) P-type is constantly being refined and adapted for specific
applications. The solution has been developed across multiple adapa sites and is available in various
iterations – from standard to high gas barrier structures – all compliant with CEPI and APCOA
requirements. PaperFlow(re) P-type can be processed on both vertical and horizontal machines and is
also available as pre-made pouches with reclosable zipper functionality.
"This award highlights our approach to innovation – developing solutions that meet the highest
technical standards while supporting the transition towards circular packaging. PaperFlow(re) P-type
demonstrates how we combine performance, efficiency, and recyclability in a practical and scalable
way,” says Richard Bell, Director of Innovation at adapa Group.
As the European partner of choice for flexible packaging solutions, adapa Group continues to expand
its portfolio of Designed for Recycling solutions, supporting customers in achieving their circularity
goals without compromising on performance.
Winning the Pap’Award marks another milestone in this journey and reinforces adapa’s role as a
trusted partner in driving the transformation of the packaging industry.
