[**PulPac**](https://www.pulpac.com/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) **is launching the PulPac Scala, a new machine platform combining its Mill-to-Web fibre unit with injection moulding technology, in the hopes of increasing the accessibility of Dry Molded Fiber worldwide.**

Approximately 100,000 injection moulding machines are produced every year, PulPac says, and many of them only produce single-use plastic. The PulPac Scala seeks to rectify this – bringing Dry Molded Fiber to customers and requiring a lower investment than the PulPac Modula while fitting into a 40-foot container.

Alongside its turnkey partner [Huarong Group](https://www.huarong.com.tw/home/lang/en/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io), PulPac is now releasing the compact, reportedly scalable Dry Molded Fiber machine platform. The fibre-forming technology claims to offer efficiency in resources, energy, and cost and hopes to overtake single-use plastic consumption globally.

“When we launched Dry Molded Fiber a few years ago, we did it with a great machine platform,” explains Sanna Fager, chief commercial officer at PulPac. “The PulPac Modula is still the best fit for producers with high volumes and a need for modularity. But one size doesn’t fit all, and we saw an opportunity to make Dry Molded Fiber approachable to even more packaging producers.

“Its name is, of course, a play on words. Due to its low investment threshold, any producer who wants to gain market leverage in this new, exciting, and fast-growing market can start small and then scale up.”

Viktor Börjesson, PulPac’s chief partnerships officer, continues: “As the inventors of Dry Molded Fiber, our knowledge about the technology is unrivaled. Huarong brings 40 years of experience in building machines for the plastic industry.

“We merged our cutting-edge tech to Huarong’s existing and functioning clamping unit, and the result is a compact, hassle-free, plug-and-play machine for Dry Molded Fiber manufacturing.”

Earlier this year, [Curt G. Joa, Inc.](https://www.joa.com/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) (JOA) worked with PulPac to bring the [PulPac Modula production platform](https://packagingeurope.com/news/dry-molded-fiber-set-to-enter-north-american-market-in-collaboration-between-pulpac-and-joa/9728.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) for Dry Molded Fiber to the North American market – aiming to meet growing demand for sustainable packaging solutions.

[SustainaPac LLC](https://www.sustainapac.com/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) also joined [PulPac](https://www.pulpac.com/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io)’s licensee network and sought to [use Dry Molded Fiber technology](https://packagingeurope.com/news/sustainapac-and-pulpac-endeavour-to-bring-dry-molded-fiber-food-service-packaging-to-north-america/9277.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) to produce single-use food service packaging products for the North American quick service restaurant market.
