kultasuklaa is a Finnish family business that manufactures craft chocolates in Finland since 1990. To achieve its goal of reducing the plastic in its packaging, Kultasuklaa collaborated with Metsä Board.
The new cardboard barrier ecological MetsäBoard Prime FBB EB It was selected for packaging because it does not contain plastic and has adequate resistance to grease and humidity. Cardboard is safe for direct contact with food and provides a high gloss as well as a smooth surface with excellent printability. Since cardboard does not contain plastic, it does not require plastic separation and can be easily recycled. The surface of the container provides a pleasant touch and feel.
The box of four pralines has an innovative structure: the outer packaging is made of a single piece of cardboard, which forms a heart. The pralines are protected by the eco-barrier cardboard on the inner surface of the packaging. The grid that keeps the pralines in place and separated is made from a single piece of eco-barrier cardboard.
