JAPAN (News release) -- Elopak ASA and Nippon Paper Industries have agreed that Nippon Paper will produce and sell Elopak's lineup of Pure-Pak® packaging for liquid food and beverage products worldwide and introduce them to the Oceania region.

In January 2022, the two companies also signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to strengthen partnership and advance collaborative efforts in the field of liquid-paper packaging.

The new license agreement will leverage the technological capabilities and innovation of both companies to pursue new business opportunities in the Oceania region, particularly in Australia and New Zealand where population growth and domestic demand are rising. It will also further promote the transition away from plastic towards more sustainable, low carbon packaging solutions for chilled liquid beverages.

Elopak, a leading global supplier of carton packaging and filling equipment, offers sustainable packaging solutions that provide a natural and convenient alternative to plastic bottles.

Nippon Paper, the largest liquid packaging producer in Japan, is concentrating efforts in the field of paper packaging. Nippon Paper group is also one of the leading packaging companies in Oceania through its subsidiary business, Opal.
