We love everything about pulp and we aren't alone. This renewable and biodegradable raw material usually made from newspaper is completely versatile and super strong. This paper packaging material is becoming increasingly popular with the growing realisation that companies and manufacturers need to urgently remove their use of plastic and polystyrene. Pulp protects heavy, customised items as well as breakables far more effectively than the alternatives.
