Conic - a new sustainable packaging solution
Wood-based and three-dimensional
Conic is a completely wood-based packaging solution visualising how new technologies and co-learning can be used to create a circular future.
About Conic
The prototype Conic is a new solution that will enable brands to reach their sustainability targets while maintaining their premium position. Conic is a solution developed by Holmen Iggesund, The Loop Factory and Grow Future Packaging Lab.
The prototype is a completely wood-based formable premium packaging solution that illustrates how three-dimensional products, such as cups and trays, which are usually made from plastics can be made from sustainable materials.

The shape of the container is created to mirror the lines and angels of the refill.
News
A new sustainable packaging solution
In 2021, Holmen Iggesund joined forces to develop a new prototype using an emerging technology to replace plastics with renewable materials for formable products.
Collaboration
Being part of what's next
One of the essential collaborators is The Loop Factory, an innovation start-up that has developed the dry moulding technology that creates formables from Holmen Iggesund’s wood fibres. The other key collaborator in the project is Grow whose Future Packaging Lab work with the engineers at Loop Factory and other partners to create commercial applications with the technology.
