**As part of our Finalist Interview series ahead of this year’s Sustainability Awards, we spoke to** [**Mondi**](https://www.mondigroup.com/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) **about its Ad/Vantage StretchWrap, nominated in the Commercialized Renewable Materials category and said to combine high stretchability and puncture resistance.**

**You’re a finalist in the Sustainability Awards 2025\. Congratulations! To start off, could you summarize your entry, in less than 50 words?**

Ad/Vantage StretchWrap is Mondi’s recyclable kraft paper for pallet wrapping. Made from responsibly sourced fibres, it combines high stretchability and puncture resistance, providing a paper-based alternative to plastic stretch film that ensures secure transport and supports a circular economy.

**Why do you think the judges were impressed with your entry? Tell us about what is innovative about your project and/or about its impact on packaging sustainability.**

Ad/Vantage StretchWrap challenges the industry norm of using plastic stretch film by offering a fibre-based alternative made from renewable material. It delivers high stretchability, puncture resistance and load stability - ensuring reliable pallet transport.

Designed for recycling, it supports a circular economy. A life cycle assessment (LCA) found that StretchWrap has a significantly lower environmental impact compared to both virgin and recycled-content plastic stretch films, particularly in categories such as climate change and fossil resource use.

**Finally, can you tell us about the ongoing development of your project, e.g. how your innovation/initiative has been received by the industry, or what the next steps are in commercialization/product development?**

Ad/Vantage StretchWrap has been well received across industries seeking to reduce their reliance on fossil-based materials. Acceleration tests and real-world transport trials have confirmed its effectiveness in stabilizing loads under demanding conditions.

With high recycling rates for fibre-based packaging and existing paper collection infrastructure, it offers a scalable and commercially viable path forward. Mondi continues to support customers in integrating this solution into their supply chains while ramping up production to meet growing demand.

**The winners of the Sustainability Awards 2025 will be announced at the Sustainable Packaging Summit, taking place in Utrecht on 10-12 November. The Summit mobilizes leaders of the FMCG value chain, policymakers, NGOs, recyclers and investors to collaborate, remove barriers and identify opportunities on the road to sustainable transformation.**
