environmentally friendly packaging
made of paper
for fruit and vegetables
recyclable and compostable
Paper is very popular with consumers. For this reason cartomat developed the cartoPaper®. A revolutionary paper packaging for potatoes, onions, flower bulbs and other agricultural products. These sensitive products place high demands on packaging in terms of processing and shelf life. cartoPaper® meets these requirements: due to a special spot coating, the paper bags are suitable for fully automatic processing and due to the high-quality of the paper, the packaged products remain in ideal condition.
Paper
wet tight
100 % recyclable and compostable (certified)
from renewable raw materials
maximum tensile strength
breathable
cartoPaper® is FSC® certified and made from 100% renewable raw materials. Spot coating enables the welding of paper. The proportion is so low (<5%) that the material dissolves during the paper recycling process. cartoPaper® is therefore approved as a mono material and may be disposed of in waste paper after use. This is how we promote recycling systems.
Machine
all vertical and horizontal form, fill and seal machines
slight modification of the forming shoulder and welding tools required
(Small packages of 500g, 1kg, 1.5kg, 2kg and 2.5kg can be processed without conversion)
30 – 60 cycles per minute
The packaging is suitable for fully automatic vertical forming, filling and closing machines. The packaging is available for a maximum filling weight of 2.5 kg. The machine can be adjusted relatively easily, allowing it to process cartoPaper® as well as plastic. We will help you if necessary.
Horizontal packaging (pillow pack) enables gentle packaging of fruit and vegetables on all heat-sealing machines at high cycle rates. The packaging consists of 100% paper and is available both perforated and with a cellulose net. The products can be packed in trays on all Flow-Pack machines.

punched holes offer insight
good ventilation – longer shelf life
The specially developed paper is wet strength. This means that the material is moisture resistant and non-absorbent. This means that hardly any moisture is removed from the product and it does not dry out. Paper is also a naturally breathable and lightproof material. These properties are essential for the freshness of products.
The bag has a viewing window with large rosette-shaped holes so that the consumer can see the products well. The paper is also very tear-resistant. With cartoPaper® the products remain well protected and of outstanding quality.
