Raiku, a wooden alternative to bubble wrap

July 10, 2023

raiku

Raiku Wrap is a 100% wood product designed to replace bubble wrap or paper. It has a flexible, spring-like structure, achieved through heat treatment that does not use water or chemicals.

Plus, it uses 50 times less energy compared to paper and cardboard. Raiku Wrap's carbon footprint is ten times less than paper and it is a compostable product. A 1 m3 wooden cube creates 15-20 m3 of Raiku Wrap, which can be used for packaging applications in cosmetics and fragrances, watches and jewelry, wine and spirits, and luxury e-commerce.

Raiku has been awarded the Luxe Pack Green Award, which was awarded during a ceremony held in Paris during the first day of Edition Spéciale by Luxe Pack on June 7. The contest rewards the best sustainable packaging initiatives, decided by the votes of the visitors.
