Paper Honeycomb: The sustainable choice. Designers of furniture, packaging engineers and product developers are spoiled for choice when it comes to potential applications of paper honeycomb. The combination of light weight, flexibility and form versatility combined with its rigidity, shock absorbance quality and structural strength make it a match for any design or engineering challenge. The reduced environmental footprint makes it a sustainable alternative raw material to work with. Paper honeycomb, as the name indicates, is completely paper based, allowing for recycling in one single waste stream for packaging solutions. Its light weight minimises transportation impact. Paper honeycomb is available in many standardized formats, enabling to develop solutions rapidly, but all EMPHA members are also experienced business partners when it comes to collaboration on new innovations and tailor-made solutions. You can find more detailed information in the various application sections.

Paper honeycomb, or simply ‘Honeycomb’ as it is addressed informally, has best-in-class characteristics through the combination of superior strength and rigidity because of its unique form of hexagonal shaped cells. The strength and rigidity are paired with extreme low aerial weight per cubic metre. These functional elements make paper honeycomb an attractive alternative for designers of protective packaging or as the base material for the production of doors, acoustic walls, exhibition panels and even furniture. In addition to these functional advantages, there is a bonus sustainability advantage. Paper is a base material with low overall environmental impact. Replacing packaging and building materials with a higher total ecological impact by paper honeycomb immediately reduces the environmental footprint of the packaging solution or product design. Paper honeycomb offers a wide range of creative solutions and applications for many industries like automotive, construction and household appliances or for transport and logistics in general. Even visual design solutions for furniture and other breath-taking interior design items are possible. Paper honeycomb is an alternative for packaging and product design, inspired by trees and bees and available for every designer or engineer who wants to create innovative solutions.

Honeycomb Application: Construction. It never ceases to amaze people how a lightweight and paper-based material, can be so effectively used as core for construction elements. Paper honeycomb core proves again and again to be able to deliver innovative solutions. Well-known examples of paper honeycomb applications in construction are flat surfaced and moulded interior doors, acoustic walls, exhibition panels and other partition solutions. The combined characteristics of light weight, rigidity and high-pressure strength form the basis of its success. Paper honeycomb core is packed and stored in a compressed state onto pallets. When used during production the paper honeycomb core is expanded to its final form, generally some 10 times larger. The benefits of lower transportation costs and lower storage costs and space requirements are significant. Closely related to applications in construction, paper honeycomb also has nearly unlimited potential for creative design in furniture and other interior design items, such as chairs, tables or shelfs. However, for building and construction solutions like doors and walls paper honeycomb is a winning alternative as the high-pressure strength core or filling material. The flexibility when it comes to produce in custom dimensions, the acoustic and thermic isolation performance values and the overall ecological advantages all contribute to the growing popularity of paper honeycomb as a powerful material for a variety of interior construction solutions. Many EMPHA members have been working in the forefront of development of these solutions and the driving force for new innovations. They are happy to share their many years of experience to deliver either existing solutions or be your development partner for new innovations. As EMPHA members are located across Europe, you can always find a partner near your won offices through the member directory. https://bit.ly/3oEobJM #construction #Newhomes #architecture #granddesigns #ecofriendly #insulation #energyefficient #paperhoneycomb #solutions #designers #innovation #builders

Paper honeycomb is an alternative for packaging and product design, inspired by trees and bees and available for every designer or engineer who wants to create innovative solutions     The paper honeycomb core is a series of hexagonal shaped cells, nested together creating a sheet when expanded with approximately 95% open space. The basic geometry of honeycomb provides a number of unique characteristics   Highest strength-to-weight ratio as a sandwich core. Highest stiffness-to-weight ratio as a sandwich core. Predictable and uniform crushing strength under compression. Processing applications in-line with low cubic input and high-volume output. Low impact on environment and society, favourable impact on economy. For the designer the honeycomb is a structural product whose unique characteristics can be used to created new products, improve existing products and solve design problems. For the industry the honeycomb creates sustainable cost savings. Paper honeycomb core is available in 3 physical forms:   Continuous unexpanded honeycomb core. This form is efficient and economical for large users. Shipped in continuous pallet load lengths, the coiled core is several hundreds of m2 when expanded mechanically at the point of use. Slices unexpanded. Certain industries require cut-to size pieces of honeycomb tailored to their application. The dimension is fit-to-use when locally expanded. Pre-expanded sheets. This type includes the expansion of the slices and is manufactured to the specific dimensions, length, width and height to fit the customer’s application.   Two Sides UK APPLiA List of our Members who can help: https://bit.ly/3TxtaIz #protectivepackaging #packagingdesigners #transportandlogistics #largeelectrical #constructionindustry #electricalappliances #automotiveindustry #lightweighting #corrugated  #paperhoneycomb #packagingindustry #enduserexperience #ecofriendlypackaging #plasticfree #plasticalternative

Replacing single-use plastic with raw materials that are widely recycled and recyclable, such as paper/board packaging solutions, can aid product developers to empower industries and countries to meet waste reduction targets and environmental global goals. Supermarket chains, industrial manufacturers of household appliances, and automotive and construction industries are all the focus of consumers, Eco-groups, and governments aiming to reduce and stop their use of single-use-plastics. Packaging is a requirement of every industry, from B2C and B2B; all-natural, sustainable, lightweight, recyclable protective packaging is being sourced more than ever before. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, recycling one ton of paper saves 17 trees and more than 3.3 cubic yards of landfill space. If you’re making the conscious choice as product developers and industry designers to use recycled paper/board solutions for primary and secondary product packaging, then your innovative ideas are on-trend to meet business and consumer’s ecological expectations. This is particularly prominent for industrial designers and developers of packaging in e-commerce businesses; online shopping has grown exponentially. The need for innovative, strong, durable protective packaging that is simple, ecological, and on-brand is not set to go away anytime soon. Due to the stable structure, recycled nature, and 100% recyclability of paper/board packaging, environmental and economic sustainability through design is achievable for all you ground-breaking engineers, product developers, and industrial designers. Moving away from plastic and toward holistic sustainability through design.
