With a focus on seasonal adaptability, the packaging includes a sleeve that can be customized for different branding needs, providing a versatile and cost-efficient solution for brand owners. In addition, the micro-flute box- es allow for greater flexibility as local production can be done in smaller batches. “We wanted eye-catching packaging, produced with the environment in mind,” says Niina Tuominen, founder of the HejBuddy brand. “As a forest owner myself, nature is an important val- ue, so it was important that our partner shared our values. Metsä Board’s sustainable approach made them the per- fect fit.” “The objective was to develop a better solution to rig- id boxes.
