PFAS Statement

Pakkauspojat Oy and its material suppliers are committed to using only suitable materials in each case with our customers. When our materials or packages are used  in direct contact with food, the materials are always selected so that packaging materials do not transfer any constituents into food in quantities that endangers health or changes properties of the packed food.

Food contact materials and articles, manufactured by our suppliers, comply with the Regulation (EC) 1935/2004 to ensure they are safe at the intended end-use application. All food contact materials and articles are manufactured in accordance with the Good Manufacturing Practises (GMP) as required in the Regulation (EC) 2023/2006.

PFAS are not used as raw material or intentionally added to the materials we use. Please note that our material suppliers do not analyze PFAS and traces of PFAS may be found in corrugated board and packaging as an impurity. 

We use corrugated materials from fully virgin and fresh fibers, where PFAS are not used. But we also use predominantly or fully recycled fiber materials. According to our material suppliers information the amount of recycled fibers in corrugated cardboard materials varies a lot and depends on the material that is used. In some materials there are no  recycled fibers at all (virgin and fresh fibers) as in some materials the amount of recycled fibers is from 10% up to 85% of the material. Products made from recycled fibers may contain residuals of PFAS as an impurity due to use of recycled fibers. If recycled fibers are used, an additional barrier might be needed if it is necessary to prevent migration of substances.

Conflict Minerals Statement

Products produced by Pakkauspojat Oy, comply with relevant applicable European legislation. Conflict minerals (Tantalum, Tin, Gold, Tungsten) are not intentionally added in our cardboard products or materials. Conflict minerals are not needed in the production of our products or materials.

Country of Origin for Pakkauspojat Oy corrugated cardboard products

Pakkauspojat Oy certifies that all corrugated cardboard products manufactured by us, as well as the materials used in our production, are sourced from Finland or within the European Union.

Pakkauspojat Oy is committed to providing customers with high-quality and environmentally friendly corrugated cardboard products with a reliably traceable origin. All corrugated cardboard materials used in our production processes meet stringent environmental and quality standards, ensuring a safe and sustainable supply chain.

Between 75-90% of the corrugated cardboard materials we use are sourced from Finland, while the remainder comes from within the European Union. The majority of our products are manufactured at our production facility in Finland, with the rest produced by our partners within the EU. These externally produced items are primarily certain types of cardboard that have limited availability in Finland. This supports the local economy and shortens supply chains, ensuring high quality and reliability.

Pakkauspojat Oy is proud to offer fully domestic corrugated cardboard products, giving our customers the opportunity to choose a responsible and sustainable packaging solution.
