Woamy soft touch biofoam to protect Cihu’s designs

Woamy is bringing to the market a revolutionary circular biofoam for protective packaging to replace harmful plastic foams, a solution sought after by the biggest players in the foam market and brands ranging from big electronic companies to luxury brands. Woamy biofoam comes in boards and sheets, and Cihu, a Finnish design company is among the very first to introduce the Woamy’s flexible sheets in their packaging of LP record holders.

“Woamy flexible sheets are ideal for surface protection for a variety of different products, and it is easy to process, and tailor for different shaped products. We are delighted to see brands contributing for a circular future and support their efforts moving away from harmful plastic foams to recyclable alternatives like Woamy biofoam. With our product we enable brands like Cihu to comply with the new EU Packaging and Packaging regulations that call for recyclability.” highlights Susanna Partanen, CEO for Woamy.

“For Cihu, it's very important to bring high quality products to our customers, including the packaging. With Woamy’s biofoam we can protect our products from any scratches caused during transport without compromising visually appealing opening experience and our goal to be kind to the environment. For us the best part about Woamy's products is the high quality and beautiful look, and that it's fully recyclable together with the cardboard box. Leading to that packaging doesn't mean sacrificing great feel, beauty or nature.” says Marjo Heikkilä, Founder of Cihu.
