Packaging with Purpose: Nilörn x WILDPLASTIC®
We’re excited to announce our collaboration with WILDPLASTIC® – a partnership centred on impact, circularity, and better material choices for the future.
WILDPLASTIC® is building a system to recover plastic from nature and bring it back into the loop. Their work tackles plastic pollution through recovery in some of the world’s most affected regions, while also strengthening informal waste collector communities through fair partnerships.
Through this collaboration, Nilörn expands preferred material options within our packaging portfolio. The material is available for protective packaging solutions such as polybags (garment bags) and e-commerce mailers, either in 100% WILDPLASTIC® or in blends with PCR/PIR LDPE.
“Partnering with WILDPLASTIC® supports Nilörn’s mission to offer more futureproof material choices. By integrating plastic recovered from nature into our packaging, we contribute to reducing plastic pollution and strengthening circular material flows.”
Christina Heines,
Material and Innovation Specialist, Nilörn
”We see WILDPLASTIC® as a value-adding ingredient brand. With NILÖRN’s client relationships and design capabilities, we can create standout, co-branded packaging elements that resonate with end customers and strengthen brand identity.”
Marten Kronemeyer,
Head of Sales, WILDPLASTIC®
Paper or Plastic – Key considerations for brands
Plastic or Paper? The packaging decision many brands struggle with. When it comes to garment packaging, the choice often comes down to two materials: LDPE plastic or paper. But which option actually performs best when you consider functionality, environmental impact, regulations, and circularity?
In our next Knowledge Hub webinar, we’ll explore some of the key factors brands consider when choosing packaging materials. Together with industry experts and partners, we’ll discuss:
-
Functional, environmental and aesthetic differences between plastic and paper
-
Regulatory considerations brands should be aware of
-
Packaging innovations and solutions from Vela™ and WILDPLASTIC®
-
A live panel discussion and Q&A on navigating packaging circularity
Date: 26 March 2026
Time: 15:00–15:45 CET
