FibreStrap is a sustainable paper cable tie designed to replace traditional fossil plastic cable ties. Made primarily from Scandinavian wood fibers with a minimum of 85% plant-based content, it is sourced from certified sustainable forests. Despite being paper-based, FibreStrap offers high tensile strength comparable to traditional plastic cable ties and has been tested and validated according to the Type 2 test standard for plastic cable ties.

The cable tie features a self-locking permanent seal, making it secure and tamper-proof. It is designed for one-time use, similar to conventional zip ties. To reduce material waste, FibreStrap is available in customizable lengths, ranging from 200mm to 780mm. Its environmental performance is reinforced by its biodegradability and recyclability in most paper recycling streams. Compared to traditional plastic alternatives, FibreStrap reduces carbon footprint and water usage by up to 80%.

Manufactured using fossil-free energy and produced locally in the Nordics, FibreStrap adheres to ethical and socially responsible practices. Its versatility makes it suitable for bundling, securing, and attaching items across various industries. The design prioritizes safety, featuring no sharp edges to minimize the risk of cuts. The technology behind FibreStrap, which replaces polyamide with renewable materials, is patented.

From a sustainability perspective, FibreStrap addresses key environmental concerns. Traditional plastic cable ties often contribute to plastic pollution in oceans, where they persist for centuries and pose a threat to marine life. FibreStrap, being biodegradable, reduces the risk of long-term pollution. Unlike plastic cable ties, which are rarely recycled, FibreStrap is repulpable through existing paper recycling systems, ensuring responsible disposal. By utilizing plant-based materials, it decreases reliance on fossil plastics and mitigates environmental damage. Its production process further enhances sustainability, reducing carbon emissions and water consumption by more than 80% compared to plastic alternatives.

FibreStrap meets rigorous environmental and safety standards, including compliance with California Proposition 65, REACH, controlled material certification, and repulpability validation. As a high-performance and environmentally responsible alternative, FibreStrap combines the functionality of traditional cable ties with sustainable innovation, offering a practical solution for industries seeking to minimize their ecological footprint.
