Mars Wrigley & Syntegon develop paper-based packaging for Balisto

Confectionery and film packaging go together like a horse and carriage – or rather, they used to. Times are changing, and so does the material that bars are wrapped in.

Today, consumer goods companies are looking for more sustainable materials. Mars Wrigley is investigating the flow wrapping potential of paper. With long-term partner Syntegon Technology the company currently realizes a large-scale test at a major German food retailer.

Watch the video about the sustainability journey of both companies and how Balisto chocolate bar is now wrapped in paper-based packaging.
