The materials - Products - DUNAPACK®

The Air In Place packaging line offers lightweight, practical and durable cushions available in 3 different materials. At the end of 2023, the revision of the entire AIP range, aimed at reducing the consumption of raw materials and plastics, led to the introduction of new cushion versions with reduced thickness at same resistance and protection capacity, available for all the materials and formats.

In addition to traditional high-density polyethylene and polyamide polyethylene, the Air in Place range offers two innovative film solutions called TEO and RIO, developed to meet the growing demand for sustainable packaging.

Launched in 2018, the TEO film is made of biodegradable and compostable vegetable starch and co-polyester, which can be easily disposed of in the organic collection. The OK COMPOST INDUSTRIAL certification, issued by TÜV Austria according to Industrial UNI EN 13432 regulation, proves the low environmental impact of this on-demand packaging solution.

The last-born in DUNAPACK® (2022) is the RIO cushion, made with over 65% regenerated recycled plastic. This innovative and reliable solution aims at reducing the consumption of virgin plastic material and contributing to the recovery of industrial waste.

The entire AIP range features a new printing compliant with latest eco-labelling regulations (Italian Legislative Decree 116/2020), to provide end-users with clear instructions on the correct way to dispose of the packaging at end-of-life.

All films are supplied in convenient, ready-to-inflate reams, allowing the number of cushions produced per pack to be doubled and reducing costs and environmental impact of packaging transport and handling.
