Mondi’s FunctionalBarrier Paper Wins European Award

Mondi has been honoured with the European Paper Recycling Award for its FunctionalBarrier Paper solutions, recognised for their contribution to advancing paper recycling across Europe.

The award highlights Mondi’s progress in developing recyclable, paper‑based packaging that meets both performance and sustainability requirements. The company’s FunctionalBarrier Papers provide a wide range of fit‑for‑purpose solutions designed for optimal material efficiency, offering the strength and specific barrier properties needed for high‑performance packaging applications.

The recognition underscores the growing industry shift toward fibre‑based materials as brands seek packaging that supports circularity without compromising functionality.
