Blister Packaging Made Sustainable

« View All Insights

Our Envirosense® PaperBlister™ packaging is shaking up the industry, winning award after award for its innovative design. 

Our PaperBlister packaging provides a fully recyclable, plastic-free alternative to traditional blister packaging that allows for:

  • Improved seal quality
  • Improved operational efficiency—less handling of materials and faster seal times
  • Reduced freight cost
  • Can run on existing ALLOYD® heat sealing equipment

PaperBlister packaging has been embraced by manufacturers not just for its sustainability, but also because it stands out on crowded store shelves. More space on the packaging means more space to get creative with branding and design

It's always an honor to be recognized for our commitment to designing for sustainability. Alloyd is helping customers and consumers alike meet their sustainability goals with our curbside-recyclable PaperBlister packages.
